Answer:

orbicularis oculi

Step-by-step explanation:

The muscle that is responsible for the blinking of the eye is called as

Orbicularis Oculi .

These muscles arise from frontal bone's nascal part, from maxilla's frontal process in the front of lacrimal groove and from anterior surface and the borders of short fibrous band and medial palpebral ligament .
