Solution
The correct option is C Hind limbs
Vestigial structures are the structures which are part of the body but they don't have any function. Python is a nonvenomous snake which is the member of phylum Chordata. They have tiny legs buried in muscles toward their tail ends but it does not play any role as a locomotory organ. Such features, either useless or poorly suited to perform a specific task are known as vestigial.So, the correct answer is option C.
