Solution

The correct option is C Tibio-fibula
There are two bones in the shank area which are the tibia and fibula. The fibula is smaller and thinner than the tibia. These two bones connect the ankle to the knee and work together to stabilize the ankle and provide support to the muscles of the lower leg. So, the correct answer is 'Tibia-fibula'.
