Solution
The correct option is
D
Clavicle
Each pectoral girdle is formed of two halves. Each half of pectoral girdle consists of a clavicle and a scapula.
The clavicle is the only long bone in the body that lies horizontally.
Each clavicle is a long slender bone with two curvatures. This bone is commonly called the collarbone.
Hence collar bone is known as the clavicle.
So, the correct answer is 'Clavicle'.
