it gives a detailed notation on the pelvic gurdle and other regions of the appendicular skeleton
According to the Bontrager textbook of Radiographic Positioning and Related Anatomy, Sometimes the term pelvic girdleis used in reference to the total pelvis. The term, however, is incorrect in that the pelvic girdle consists only of the two hip (innominate) bones, whereas the term pelvisincludes four bones, the right and left hip (innominate) bones, the sacrum, and the coccyx.
The three bones which make up the pelvic girdle are the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis.
The pelvic girdle supports the weight of the upper body and also serves to protect/house the reproductive organs and the urinary bladder.
illiac, ischium, and pubis
Massive weight
Flexibility: pectoral girdle is more flexible-less ligaments, ball and socket joint is shallower Security: pelvic girdle is more secure, deeper socket. there are more dislocated shoulders than dislocated hips ability to bear weight: pelvic girdle can bear more weight-the pelvic girdle has bones that are fused (os coxa) and a joint with the sacrum. the pectoral girdle has a little bone called the clavicle connecting it to the body wall.
Sacrum
It is broader and flatter allowing easier passage for birthing a baby
The pelvic girdle and the thoracic girdle. You are familiar how a body girdle goes around the body. These are the same. They make a girdle around the chest and around the pelvis.
The illium, ischium, and pubic are the 3 pelvic bones that articulate with the pelvic girdle
Massive weight
It includes the pectoral girdle , the pelvic girdle , forelimbs, and the hind limbs.
