Solution

The correct option is B 7
In humans, the bones of the legs (hind limb) are femur (thigh bone the longest bone), tibia and fibula, tarsals (ankle bones 7 in number), metatarsals (5 in number) and phalanges (digits 14 in number). A cup-shaped bone, called as patella covers the knee ventrally (knee cap).
Hence the correct option is B.
