Solution
Option (2) is the correct answer because, in each fore limb, metacarpals (palm bones) are 5 in number. Carpals are also known as wrist bones and they are 8 in numbers. In each limb, 14 phalanges (digits) are present. In each hind limb, tarsals (ankle bones) are 7 in number and metatarsals 5 in number.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
