Solution

The correct option is A Femur
The greater trochanter of the femur is a large, irregular, quadrilateral eminence and a part of the skeletal system. The trochanters are points at which hip and thigh muscles attach. The greater trochanter gives attachment to a number of muscles (including the gluteus medius and minimus, piriformis, obturator internus and externus, and gemelli muscles)
