xiphoid
false ribs - vertebrochondral
true ribs - vertebrosternal
body
manubrium

Explanation:

Identify sternal regions

The sternum consists of three main parts from superior to inferior:

• The superior portion is the manubrium, pointed to by label 27.
• The middle, largest portion is the body (gladiolus), pointed to by label 28.
• The small, inferior process is the xiphoid process, pointed to by label 29.

Classify rib groups

Ribs are classified based on their anterior attachments:

• True ribs (vertebrosternal ribs, pairs 1–7) attach directly to the sternum via their own costal cartilages. Label 30 outlines these upper ribs.
• False ribs (vertebrochondral ribs, pairs 8–10) attach indirectly to the sternum by joining the cartilage of the rib above. Label 31 outlines these lower ribs.

Match labels to terms

Using the identified anatomical structures, we match each numbered label to its corresponding term from the dropdown list:

• 27 matches "Manubrium"
• 28 matches "Body"
• 29 matches "Xiphoid"
• 30 matches "True ribs - vertebrosternal"
• 31 matches "False ribs - vertebrochondral"

Answer:

No.	Answer
28	Body
29	Xiphoid
30	True ribs - vertebrosternal
31	False ribs - vertebrochondral
