Explanation:

A broken nose can lead to a deviated septum, which is a displacement of the wall between the nostrils. This can cause sleep apnea, congestion, and difficulty breathing. Damage to the palatine bone is not directly related to these nasal - breathing symptoms. A simple broken nasal bone without septal deviation usually does not cause such severe long - term breathing issues.

Answer:

C. Deviated septum as a result of the broken nose
