The correct answer is: Pectoral girdle - 4 bones
The shoulder girdle or pectoral girdle (bones in the appendicular skeleton) in humans consists of 2 bones: the clavicle and scapula. Ribs 8th, 9th and 10th are known as false ribs. They do not connect to the sternum; instead, they connect to the costal cartilage.
