    (C) tarsal glands: produce tears

    Explanation:

    Tarsal glands are also called as Meibomian glands. These glands do not secrete tears. The tarsal glands sere to produce a fluid which in turn do not allow the eyelids to adhere to each other. Hence, tarsal glands are involved in preventing the eyelids from sticking to each other. Production of tears is the function of lacrimal glands.
