Answer:D. Whale Pelvis Bone

Step-by-step explanation:Structures that have no apparent function and appear to be residual parts from a past ancestor are called vestigial structures.

Examples of vestigial structures include the human appendix, the pelvic bone of a snake, and the wings of flightless birds. Hope this helps
