Wikipedia

  1. hipbone

    The hip bone (os coxae, innominate bone, pelvic bone or coxal bone) is a large flat bone, constricted in the center and expanded above and below. In some vertebrates (including humans before puberty) it is composed of three parts: the ilium, ischium, and the pubis. The two hip bones join at the pubic symphysis and together with the sacrum and coccyx (the pelvic part of the spine) comprise the skeletal component of the pelvis – the pelvic girdle which surrounds the pelvic cavity. They are connected to the sacrum, which is part of the axial skeleton, at the sacroiliac joint. Each hip bone is connected to the corresponding femur (thigh bone) (forming the primary connection between the bones of the lower limb and the axial skeleton) through the large ball and socket joint of the hip.

  1. hipbone

    The hipbone, also known as the pelvic bone, is a large, flat bone located in the lower part of the torso. It is formed by the fusion of three bones: the ilium, ischium, and pubis. The hipbone makes up the pelvic girdle, playing a crucial role in protecting the pelvis and supporting the weight of the upper body, allowing for balance and movement. The hipbone is also the point of attachment for several muscles and ligaments.
