Answer 1

Answer: (C)

C

• Pelvic girdle consists of two coxal bones. Each coxal bone is formed by the fusion of three bones – ilium, ischium and pubis.
• At the point of fusion of the above bones is a cavity called acetabulum to which the thigh bone articulates.
  
• Hence ilium, ischium, pubis are coxal bones of the pelvic girdle.
• So, the correct answer is 'C'
