they are similar because they are both corresponding bones of the arms and leg

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be option A.

The humerus and femur are the bones of the appendicular skeletal system.

The humerus is a long bone of the arms which connects it to the skeletal through scapula.  

Similarly, the femur is a long bone of the thigh which connects the lower limb with axial skeletal through the pelvic joint.
