Solution

The correct option is B Gluteus maximus
The gluteus maximus (also known as glutus maximus or, collectively with the gluteus medius and minimus, the glutes) is the largest and most superficial of the three gluteal muscles. It makes up a large portion of the shape and appearance of the hips. It permits a variety of motion and allows us to sit upright.
Hence the correct option is A.
