Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Condyle

The condylar neck is the thinnest, most vulnerable part of the mandible and acts as a 'safety valve,' absorbing impact forces. Condylar fractures are frequently bilateral, best evaluated with panoramic radiographs, and managed by oral surgeons.
