Select the correct option.
1. There are seven pairs of vertebrosternal, three pairs of vertebrochondral and two pairs of vertebral ribs.
2. 8th, 9th and 10th pairs of ribs articulate directly with the sternum.
3. 11th and 12th pairs of ribs are connected to the sternum with the help of hyaline cartilage.
4. Each rid is a flat thin bone and all the ribs are connected dorsally to the thoracic vertebrae and ventrally to the sternum.

| (b) | Acromion | (ii) | Head of the humerus |
| (c) | Scapula | (iii) | Clavicle |
| (d) | Glenoid cavity | (iv) | Do not connect with the sternum |

| 1. | (i) | (iii) | (ii) | (iv) |
| 2. | (iii) | (ii) | (iv) | (i) |

Glenoid cavity articulates
| 1. | clavicle with acromion | 2. | scapula with acromion |
| 3. | clavicle with scapula | 4. | humerus with scapula |
The largest foramen in the human skull is:
| 1. | foramen magnum | 2. | jugular foramen |
| 3. | foramen ovale | 4. | foramen spinosum |
The clavicle articulates with:
1. first rib and thoracic vertebra
2. humerus and sternum
3. cervical rib and sternum
4. scapula and sternum
Identify the correct statement regarding human ribs:
1. The true ribs attach directly to the sternum with costal cartilage.
2. Floating ribs do not have any attachments.
3. The human ribs are tricephalic.
4. Vertebrochondral ribs are classified as true ribs.
Select the correct statement regarding the specific disorder of muscular or skeletal system.
| 1. | Muscular dystrophy - age-related shortening of muscles |
| 2. | Osteoporosis- decrease in bone mass and higher chances of fractures with advancing age |
| 3. | Myasthenia gravis- an autoimmune disorder which inhibits the sliding of myosin filaments |
| 4. | Gout- inflammation of joints due to extra deposition of calcium |
Abnormal curvature of the vertebral column where the alignment shows a lateral deviation is called as:
| 1. | kyphosis | 2. | lordosis |
| 3. | scoliosis | 4. | ankylosis |
