Vedclass · Answer

(C) Jacobson's organ,also known as the vomeronasal organ,is an auxiliary olfactory sense organ found in many animals. It is well-developed in amphibians (like frogs) and reptiles. In mammals,it is generally present but often vestigial or absent in higher primates and humans. Specifically,it is absent in rabbits and vestigial in humans. Therefore,since it is not functional or absent in both,the most appropriate answer is $(C)$.
