C. by moving inhaled air around the nasal cavity in front of their blowholes

Whales produce noise underwater by moving air around in their nasal cavity in front of their blowholes, similar to vocalizations produced by humans using their larynx and vocal cords. This process creates a variety of vocalizations, including calls, songs, and echolocation clicks.
