The correct option is D Ribs, vertebral column and sternum
In mammals, like rabbit and humans thoracic vertebrae, ribs and sternum together form the rib cage. In humans, the rib cage, also known as the thoracic cage, is a bony and cartilaginous structure which surrounds the thoracic cavity and supports the pectoral girdle (shoulder girdle), forming a core portion of the human skeleton.
