Solution

The correct option is D Both A and B
  • A pectoral girdle or shoulder girdle attach the bones of upper limb to the axial skeleton.
  • Each pectoral girdle is formed of two halves. Each half of pectoral girdle consists of a scapula and clavicle.
  • Glenoid cavity is a shallow, pyriform articular surface, which is located on the lateral angle of the scapula. It articulates with the humerus to form the shoulder joint. Hence glenoid cavity is associated with scapula and humerus.
  • So,the correct answer is 'Both A and B'.
