Solution

The correct option is A Maxillary
The motor portion of the trigeminal nerve is responsible for jaw movement and chewing, while the sensory portion of the nerve provides the sensation of touch over the face as well as on the surface of the eye. There are three major branches of the trigeminal nerve the ophthalmic branch, the maxillary branch and the mandibular branch.
