Correct answer
- CLa cinta abdominal sobre los huesos de la cadera.the lap strap over the hip bones.
Explanation
The upper part of the belt (the chest strap) must go over the collarbone, halfway between the shoulder and the neck, while the lower part (the lap strap) goes over the hip bones, always below the abdomen. If the lower part is not positioned correctly, the body can slide under it and be thrown out; this is known as submarining.
