Solution

The correct option is D Ilium, Ischium, pubis
There are three bones of the hip bone that come together to form the acetabulum. Two-fifths of the structure is the ischium, which provides lower and side boundaries to the acetabulum. The ilium forms the upper boundary, providing a little less than two-fifths of the structure of the acetabulum. The rest is formed by the pubis, near the midline.
So, the correct option is 'Ilium, Ischium, Pubis'.
