Answer:  B. [tex]192\ m^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral area of a rectangular prism is given by :-

[tex]\text{Lateral Area}=2h(l+w)[/tex], where h is the height, l is the length and w is the width of the rectangular prism.

Now, using the given information, the lateral area of the rectangular prism will be :-

[tex]\text{Lateral Area}=2(4)(16+8)=8(24)=192\ m^2[/tex]
