B Correct answer
Explanation

Insect bites primarily occur on exposed skin areas - arms, legs, face, and neck. The ear cartilage is rarely a target. Mosquitoes and other biting insects are attracted to body heat, carbon dioxide, and skin chemicals, all more abundant in other body areas. The ear is an uncommon bite location.
