yes appendicular skeleton ie C is very correct bcos it consist of the pectoral and pelvic girdle, which contains the ischium and scapula.

The appendicular skeleton is divided into six major regions: Shoulder girdle (4 bones) - Left and right clavicle (2) and scapula (2). ... Pelvis (2 bones) - left hip bone and right hip bone (2). Thighs and legs (8 bones) - Left and right femur (2) (thigh), patella (2) (knee), tibia (2) and fibula (2) (leg)

What are these bones?
Scapula = Shoulder blade
Ischium = One of the bones that make up the pelvis (the lower part of the body near your hips)
So they're both bones that help attach your limbs to your body.
The skeleton has two main parts:
Axial skeleton = Skull, spine, ribs
Appendicular skeleton = Limbs and the girdles (shoulder and pelvic bones) that attach them
π§© So letβs match the options:
A. Pectoral girdle β This is where the scapula belongs
but not the ischium 
B. Pelvic girdle β This is where the ischium belongs
but not the scapula 
C. Appendicular skeleton β YES! This includes both the pectoral and pelvic girdles 

D. Hind limb β Ischium helps attach the leg, yes, but scapula is for front limb 
Correct Answer:
C. Appendicular skeleton

The limbs and limbs girdles form the appendicular skeleton.The scapula is from the pectoral girdle while Ischium is from the pelvic girldle.The right answer is pelvic girdle option B
