Solution

The correct option is C Glenoid cavity
Pectoral girdle also called shoulder girdle is a part of the appendicular skeletal system. The two halves of the pectoral girdle are made up of clavicle and scapula.
Scapula lies between the 2nd and 7th ribs. It is made up of three parts i.e body (large triangular bone), spine (sharp ridge), and acromion (flat, expanded process).
Glenoid cavity present in the scapula joins with the head of humerus.
