What else can I help you with?
The hip socket is also known as?
The hip socket is called the acetabulum; the hip bone is called the pelvis or pelvic girdle. The joint is the femoro-acetabular or femoro-pelvic joint.
What is the cup like depression of the coxal bones into which the head of the femur fits?
It is called acetabulum. Acetabulum articulates with round head of femur bone.
What attaches to the acetabulum?
Femur (thigh bone) fits into acetabulum.
Cup shaped depression on the hip joint that receives the head of the femur?
The cup-shaped depression on the hip joint that receives the head of the femur is called the acetabulum. It forms part of the hip bone structure known as the pelvis and allows for the articulation and movement of the femur within the hip joint. The acetabulum provides stability and support for the hip joint during weight-bearing activities.
What bone is the acetabulum found on?
coxal bone (hipbone)
Deep socket in the hip bone that receives the head of the thigh bone?
The deep socket in the hip bone that receives the head of the thigh bone is called the acetabulum. It forms part of the hip joint, providing a secure and stable connection for the head of the femur. The acetabulum is lined with cartilage to cushion and facilitate smooth movement within the joint.
Head of this large bone that articulates with the acetabulum of the coxal bone?
femur
Is acetabulum part of the musculoskeletal system?
Yes, the acetabulum is part of the musculoskeletal system. It is the depression in which the femur joins the pelvix.
Is the acetabulum a flat bone?
The acetabulum is the concave surface of the pelvis where the femur meets the pelvic hip socket.
What is the deep socket in the coxal bone that receives that head of the thigh bone?
acetabulum
Deep socket in coxal bone that receives the head of thigh bone?
Acetabulum
Cavity surrounded by the hip bone?
The cavity surrounded by the hip bone is called the acetabulum. It is a socket-like structure where the head of the femur (thigh bone) articulates with the pelvis to form the hip joint. The acetabulum plays a crucial role in stabilizing the hip joint and allowing for a wide range of motion.
