B Correct answer
Explanation

Cats have approximately 32 muscles in each ear, which allows them to independently rotate their ears 180 degrees to pinpoint sound sources. This exceptional mobility helps cats detect prey and predators even when the sound source is behind them. The other options (24, 48, 64) are not biologically accurate.
