Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Reticulum is the smallest compartment of the ruminant stomach.
The reticulum is a pouch-like structure in the forward area of the body, close to the heart. The tissues in the reticulum form a network similar to a honeycomb. A small tissue fold lies between the reticulum and rumen, but the two aren't separate compartments.
