Solution

The correct option is A
Mons pubis

A pad of fatty tissue called the mons pubis covers the front of the pubic bone and serves as a protective cushion for the female reproductive organs. They form the outer lips, or heavy folds of skin, surrounding the opening of the vagina. Two small lips, or folds of skin are located between the labia majora.
