Correct Answer is C
Explanation

B. Cranial nerves III, II, and VI are involved in vision and eye movement but not in mouth functions.
C. Cranial nerves IX (glossopharyngeal), X (vagus), and XII (hypoglossal) are all tested through functions such as swallowing, speech, and movement of the tongue, which occur in the mouth.
