Correct answer: C. It does not have any role

  • A. It has a major role
  • B. It has a minor role
  • C. It does not have any role
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

Meckel’s cartilage does not directly form the mandible, which develops mainly by intramembranous ossification lateral to it. It acts mainly as a temporary guide and contributes to a few associated structures, so its direct role is considered absent or negligible.
