Solution

The correct option is C Stapes
The fenestra ovalis connects the tiny bones of the middle ear to the scala vestibuli, which is the upper part of the cochlea. The bone of the middle ear that actually connects to the fenestra ovalis is called the stirrup, or stapes.
So, the correct answer is 'Stapes'
