Solution

The correct option is B Humerus with scapula
The glenoid cavity is a structural feature on the scapula bone which is also known as shoulder bone.
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the head of the humerus, the upper-arm bone at the shoulder joint, enabling the arm to move relative to the torso. Hence option B is correct.
