Solution

The correct option is D Atlas vertebrae
The atlas vertebrae are the only vertebrae which do not have centrum. During development, the centrum of atlas vertebra gets fused with the centrum of the axis. So the holes of the axis vertebra compose the body of the atlas vertebra.
So, option D is the correct option.
