Solution

The correct option is A True
The sternum is the elongated bony structure that anchors the anterior thoracic cage. It consists of three parts: the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process. The clavicular notch is the shallow depression located on either side at the superior-lateral margins of the manubrium.
So, the correct option is 'True'.
