Solution

The correct option is C Pigeon
Pigeon belongs to class Aves. Bones of birds are lighter in weight than those of other animals. Some of the bones are hollow and act as part of the avian respiratory system. These bones are called pneumatic bones. They include the skull, humerus, clavicle, keel, pelvic girdle, lumbar and sacral vertebrae. Thus the correct answer is option C.
