Correct answer: C
Solution
(c) The clavicle and glenoid cavity are associated with the pectoral girdle, not the pelvic girdle. The pectoral girdle is formed by the clavicle and scapula and connects the upper limbs with the axial skeleton. The glenoid cavity is a depression present on the scapula that articulates with the head of the humerus to form the shoulder joint. The pelvic girdle, on the other hand, is formed by the ilium, ischium, and pubis and supports the lower limbs.More Locomotion & Movement PYQs
