Solution

The correct option is A Humerus
  • The forelimb comprises of humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.
  • The humerus is the long bone in the upper arm. It is located between the shoulder and the elbow joint. At the shoulder, the humerus connects to the frame of the body via the glenoid fossa of the scapula. Hence humerus is a bone of forelimb.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Humerus'.
