It consists of two coxae ("hipbones"). The coxae articulate with each other anteriorly at the symphysis pubis and posteriorly with the sacrum of the vertebral column. Note: the pelvis consists of the following 3 bones: coxae, sacrum, and coccyx. Coxa = singular Coxae = plural Label: D A. (bone) B. (bone) A C. (bone) B D. (Landmark). E. (Landmark) F. (Joint)_ G.

Noteespecially the flare of the iliac bones, the angle of thepubic arch, the distance between the ischial spines andischial tuberosities, and the curve and width of thesacrum. In what ways are the differences you observedrelated to the function of the female pelvis as a birthcanal?arrow_forwardWhich of the following examples represents a bony joint, or synostosis? Multiple Choice Cranial sutures form as a synostosis when the baby's fontanels close. When the two maxillary bones unite to form the anterior two thirds of the hard palate, a synostosis develops. An infant is born with right and left mandibular bones, but they soon fuse into a single bone. A synostosis occurs in the jaw when a child's second set, or permanent teeth come in. A synostosis develops at the ends of the tibia and fibula to help hold them together.arrow_forward
