The pelvic girdle connect the leg with_________?
Correct answer: A. Vertebral column
- A. Vertebral column
- B. Rib cage
- C. Skull
- D. Shoulder
Explanation
The pelvic girdle attaches the lower limbs to the axial skeleton through the hip bones, which connect with the sacrum of the vertebral column. The shoulder is also a girdle connecting a limb to the trunk, so it may be chosen by students who confuse the pelvic and pectoral girdles.
