The correct answer is C. 14.

The human face consists of 14 bones. These bones are responsible for forming the structure and shape of the face. The 14 bones of the face are:

Two nasal bones
Two maxilla bones (upper jaw)
Two zygomatic bones (cheekbones)
Two lacrimal bones (located near the tear ducts)
Two palatine bones (forming the back of the hard palate)
Two inferior nasal conchae (part of the nasal cavity)
One vomer bone (forming part of the nasal septum)
One mandible bone (lower jaw)
These bones work together to provide support and protection for the facial features and organs, such as the eyes, nose, and mouth.
