Bones have been saved from these victims over the years. Let’s study them to see what we can find. Victim #1: The skull shows a prominent external occipital protuberance and has a sloping frontal bone. Victim #2: The pelvis shows a greater sciatic arch and a wide sub-pubic angle. The sacrum is short and wide. In addition, the femur bone shows that one epiphyseal plate has completely fused while the other is still slightly open. Victim #3: The skull has a squarish mental protuberance and a less obtuse mandibular angle. The femur and the tibia seem to be bowing. Using this information, you should be able to determine the gender of each victim and possibly other important information. Write your responses in the text box provided. What can you determine about Victim #1? _______________________________________________________________________________________ What can you determine…arrow_forward
