Solution

The correct option is A True
Human skeleton is divided into two types based on the planes the bones are present. They are Axial skeleton present in the central plane and Appendicular skeleton i.e., bones present in appendages. The appendicular skeleton of 126 bones and the axial skeleton of 80 bones together form the complete skeleton of 206 bones in the human body. So, the given statement is true.
