Answer

  • D It mixes fuel and air

Explanation

In the venturi of the carburettor a low pressure develops, which draws fuel from the jet and mixes it with the air. The throttle valve controls the amount of mixture and thus the power. Because air and fuel cool down in the process, ice can form in the carburettor.
