Solution

The correct option is A Pectoral girdle
The pectoral girdle in birds is absent instead a furcula is present in them. It is also called as wishbone which provides a flexible attachment site for the breast muscles along with the coracoids act as struts that resist pressure created by wing stroke during flight.
So the correct answer is 'Pectoral girdle'.
