Q. Pectoral girdle constitute

AFMCAFMC 2010Locomotion and Movement

Solution:

Pectoral girdle is the bony or cartilaginous structure in vertebrates to which the anterior limbs (pectoral fins, forelegs or arms) are attached. In mammals, it consists of two dorsal scapula (shoulder blades) attached to the backbone and two ventral clavicles (collar bones) attached to the sternum (breast bone).
