Correct option is B
The correct answer is: (b) While frowning
Explanation:
- Humans use more facial muscles when frowning compared to when they are smiling.
- Frowning involves the contraction of more muscles, including those in the forehead, eyebrows, and lower face.
Information Booster:
Facial muscles: Human faces have over 40 muscles that help in making different expressions and communicating emotions.
Smiling: Involves the zygomatic major, which pulls the mouth's corners upward, as well as other small muscles around the eyes.
Talking: While talking, muscles like the orbicularis oris (around the lips) and buccinator (in the cheeks) are used, but these don't involve as many muscles as frowning does.
