Solution

The correct option is B Two femurs
The head of the femur articulates with the acetabulum in the pelvic bone forming the hip joint, while the tibia and kneecap forming the knee joint. By most measures, the femur is the strongest bone in the body. The femur is also the longest bone in the human body.
So, the correct option is 'Two femurs'.
