The correct answer is A

Explanation:

Total there are 206 bones in humans which are categorized into axial skeleton and appendicular skeleton. Axial skeleton consists of 80 bones and appendicular skeleton consists of 126 bones. Vertebral bones are part of axial skeleton.Total there are 26 vertebral bones:

Cervical - 7

Thoracic - 12

Lumbar - 5

Sacral - 1 (5 bones fused to become one)

Coccygeal -1 (4 bones fused to become one)

So we can write the vertebral formula as follows C7 T12 L5 S(5) C(4)
