Solution

The correct option is A

Pectoral girdle- Acetabulum


The shoulder girdle or pectoral girdle is the set of bones which connects the upper limb to the axial skeleton on each side. In humans, it consists of the clavicle and scapula. The acetabulum is a concave surface of the pelvis. The head of the femur meets with the pelvis at the acetabulum, forming the hip joint.
The pelvic girdle is formed by the fusion of ilium, ischium, and pubis.
