The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is true regarding the articulation of bones in the context of locomotion and movement, we will analyze each statement provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Articulation of Bones**: - The humerus is the bone of the upper arm, and it articulates with the shoulder girdle. - The pelvic girdle contains the acetabulum, which is the socket for the femur, the thigh bone. 2. **Evaluating the Statements**: - **Statement 1**: "Head of humerus bone articulates with acetabulum of pectoral girdle." - This statement is incorrect. The head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula, which is part of the pectoral girdle, not the acetabulum. - **Statement 2**: "Head of humerus bone articulates with the glenoid cavity of pectoral girdle." - This statement is correct. The head of the humerus fits into the glenoid cavity, allowing for a wide range of motion in the shoulder. - **Statement 3**: "Head of humerus bone articulates with the acetabulum of pelvic girdle." - This statement is incorrect. The head of the femur articulates with the acetabulum of the pelvic girdle, not the humerus. - **Statement 4**: "Head of lumbar bone articulates with the glenoid cavity of pelvic girdle." - This statement is incorrect. Lumbar vertebrae do not articulate with the glenoid cavity; they are part of the vertebral column and articulate with other vertebrae and the pelvis. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only true statement is **Statement 2**: "Head of humerus bone articulates with the glenoid cavity of pectoral girdle." ### Final Answer: The true statement is: **Head of humerus bone articulates with the glenoid cavity of pectoral girdle.** ---
