Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The hip bone (os coxae, innominate bone, pelvic bone or coxal bone) is a large flat bone, constricted in the center and expanded above and below. In some vertebrates (including humans before puberty) it is composed of three parts: the ilium, ischium, and the pubis.

Detailed explanation-2: -In discussing the pelvis, a distinction can be made between the “pelvic spine” and the “pelvic girdle.” The pelvic girdle, also known as the os coxae, Latin for “bone of the hip, ‘’ consists of the fused bones identified individually as the ilium, ischium, and pubis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is Incus. The hip bones on the right and left sides together form a pelvic girdle. Incus is one of the three bones in the middle ear.
