The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options are parts of hindlimbs, we can analyze each option step by step: 1. **Femur**: The femur is known as the thigh bone and is the largest bone in the hindlimb. It connects the hip to the knee. Therefore, the femur is indeed a part of the hindlimbs. 2. **Humerus**: The humerus is the bone of the upper arm (forelimb) that connects the shoulder to the elbow. Since it is part of the forelimb, it is not a part of the hindlimbs. 3. **Tarsals**: The tarsals are a group of bones located in the foot, which is part of the hindlimb. Therefore, tarsals are included in the hindlimbs. 4. **Wrist**: The wrist is part of the forelimb, specifically the area that connects the forearm to the hand. Thus, it is not a part of the hindlimbs. Based on this analysis, the parts of the hindlimbs from the options provided are: - i) Femur - iii) Tarsals The correct answer is **i) Femur and iii) Tarsals**.
