What is the name of the bone marking of the femur that articulates with the pelvic girdle?
The bone marking of the femur that articulates with the pelvic girdle is called the head of the femur.
Does the femur insert into the pelvic girdle at the patella?
No, the femur does not insert into the pelvic girdle at the patella. The femur connects to the pelvic girdle at the acetabulum, which is located in the hip bone. The patella, or kneecap, is a bone that sits in front of the knee joint and provides protection and leverage for the quadriceps muscle, but it is not involved in the connection between the femur and the pelvic girdle.
Scientific name for hip?
The scientific name for the hip bone is the "os coxae" or "innominate bone."
How does the pelvic girdle merge with the sacrum and femur spine?
sacro-illiac joint
Joint between axail skeleton and pelvic girdle?
The joint between the axial skeleton (specifically the sacrum) and the pelvic girdle is called the sacroiliac joint. This joint connects the spine to the hip bones and is important for weight-bearing and transferring forces between the upper body and lower body. The sacroiliac joint is a synovial joint with limited mobility, providing stability to the pelvis during activities such as walking and standing.
What part of the femur articulates with the pelvic bone?
One side of the pubis articulates interiorly with the other side of the pubis, joining at the pubic symphysis. Posteriorly it articulates with the sacrum, the Acetabulum proximally articulates with Femur bone. So therefore there are three articulation points for the pelvic girdle.
Where the femur inserts into the pelvic girdle?
The femur inserts into the pelvic girdle at the acetabulum, a deep socket located on the lateral aspect of the pelvis. This joint, known as the hip joint, allows for a wide range of motion in the leg while providing stability for weight-bearing activities. The articulation between the femur and the acetabulum is crucial for locomotion and mobility. The surrounding ligaments and muscles further support this joint, enhancing its functionality.
What are the spurs on ball pythons?
The spurs on pythons are called Pelvic Spurs. They are attached to what is left of the femur and pelvic girdle in Boas and Pythons. The males use them to tickle the females during courtship.
Do people have a but knuckle?
No, you have a pelvic bone where a right femur and left femur attach. 'at what junction?' you ask? the Sacro Iliac; say that 5 times fast...
What is one half of the pelvic girdle?
One half of the pelvic girdle is called the os coxae or innominate bone, which consists of the ilium, ischium, and pubis bones. These bones come together to form the acetabulum, which articulates with the femur to form the hip joint.
The hind limbs on a frog attach to the central skeleton by first attaching to the girdle?
The hind limbs of a frog attach to the central skeleton through the pelvic girdle, specifically the ilium and sacral vertebrae. This connection provides support and allows for efficient movement during activities like jumping and swimming.
The radius bone connects with what other bones?
Femur connects to your pelvic girdle, more specifically in the pelvic girdle is the pelvis and in the acetabulum ( this forms hip joint). And it connects to the tibia and fibula to from knee joint.
