I know this doesnt really fit into the powerlifting forum, but I didn’t wanna post in the bodybuilding and get, incline cable flie on a bosu ball balancing on one leg etc etc. So you can only do one exercise per body part for the rest of your life…What are you doing?
Chest- Incline BB
Back- Deadlift
Quads-Squat
Hams-Glute Ham
Bis- Reverse grip pullups
Tris-Dips
Traps+Forearms(combo)- Farmer’s walk
Shoulders- DB Press
best for what? what feels good? what adds strength or size? what isolates the best? and why body parts and not movements?
i could use Dan John’s 5 movements in order of importance:
1)loaded carries
2)squat
3)deadlift
4)pull
5)press
i guess if i were to follow (and add to) your list:
Chest- dips
upper Back - pullups/chinups
low back - goodmornings
Quads-belt squats
Hams-Glute Ham
Bis- Reverse grip pullups
Tris-Dips
Traps+Forearms(combo)- Farmer’s walk
Shoulders- axle press
glutes - hip thrusts
abz - planks
hips - box squats
Agree with asooneyeonig. weird question. If I were to form the most concise list of exercises that cover the entire body, with a good range of size/strength goals in mind, it would probably be OHP, BP, Squat, Deadlift, Power Clean (or potentially Power Snatch), and pull ups.
Anyone can build a strong, balanced body and big muscles with these exercises alone. Covers everything. I’m also a fan of Dan John’s list. for his list I would do sandbag carries, squat, deadlift, pull ups, and OHP. you could sub in rows for pull ups, or BP for OHP.

If this is what you were expecting out of the bodybuilding forum, you need to become better acquainted with the bodybuilding forum. That’s not what you can expect anywhere on this site.

Biceps- ez bar curls
Neck- 4 way neck machine
