Options
- AA - 4, B - 2, C - 1, D - 3
- BA - 2, B - 4, C - 1, D - 3
- CA - 2, B - 1, C - 4, D - 3
- DA - 1, B - 4, C - 2, D - 3
Correct answer
B. A - 2, B - 4, C - 1, D - 3
Step-by-step solution
True ribs (first seven pairs) are dorsally attached to the thoracic vertebrae and ventrally connected to the sternum with the help of hyaline cartilage. Thus, A matches with 2. False ribs (8th, 9th, and 10th pairs) do not articulate directly with the sternum but join the seventh rib with the help of hyaline cartilage. Thus, B matches with 4. Floating ribs (11th and 12th pairs) are not connected ventrally. Thus, C matches with 1. Coxal bone of the pelvic girdle is formed by the fusion of three bones: ilium, ischium,
