The lips adjective is which?

Answer: (A)

The lips adjective is labial. It comes from the Latin labia meaning lips and is the standard term used in anatomy to describe anything relating to the lips, such as the labial surface of a tooth (the side facing the lips). The other terms do not describe the lips: pudendal refers to the external genitalia and perineum, venous to veins, and vesical to the bladder.
