The Ball and Socket Joint is the attachment of the leg to the pelvic girdle at the hip. I hope this help. Dr. Charlton
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.
The upper leg bone, known as the femur, attaches to the pelvis at the hip joint. This connection allows for movements such as walking, running, and jumping. The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint that provides stability and range of motion to the leg.
They are designed to work together. The muscles that link the two girdles, the lats, the gluts wit the lats and trapizies, the long muscles that drape the shoulders that intertwine the with muscles attached to the pelvis all work in concert with movement. It has been noted by F.M. Alexander that all movement of the body begins with that muscle point located at the small of the back. The only way to experience the composite movement of the shoulder girdle and the pelvic girdle is to 1. Be fortunate to be brought up by a parent that has free movement of the shoulder and pelvic girdles, so as an offspring you could image properly, or 2. Stretch. If you have the desire to imulate those with good movement, poise and grace, then this very desire suggests that you do not have a certain poise and grace exhibited by those with graceful shoulder and pelvic girdle movement. The only recourse you have is to stretch so that your muscles lenthen to allow your skeleton to expand. The muscles will eventually maintain a lengthening and your shoulder girdle and pelvic girdle will function together. Please note that this change you're asking of yourself is grand. It is a life style change. You must drop all of your baggage and start by doing nothing. This period is doing nothing may include that you do the opposite of what you have been doing. i.e. putting on your pants initially with the left leg insted of the right. Start downstairs with the left insted of the right leg. Imperceptiably lengthen your neck and spine as you stand in line at the grocery store. You'll need to regain a spiritual strength as you gain confidence in youself and take your inate power from your friends and family members. God Bless.
The anatomy of the upper leg and hip are closely connected because the hip joint connects the thigh bone (femur) to the pelvis. The muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the upper leg and hip work together to provide stability, support, and movement for the body.
It is located at the base of the spine (properly known as the caudal end). The pelvis incorporates the socket portion of the hip joint for each leg (in bipeds) or hind leg (in quadrupeds). It forms the lower limb (or hind-limb) girdle of the skeleton.

Your pelvic girdle which contains the pelvis (2), the sacrum, and the coccyx
No, it is the large bone in the upper part of the leg above the knee
The pelvic girdle consists of the ilium, ischium, and pubis, which fuse to form the acetabulum, the socket for the hip joint. The rear limb includes the femur (thigh bone), patella (kneecap), tibia, and fibula (bones of the lower leg), along with the bones of the foot, including the tarsals, metatarsals, and phalanges. Together, these structures support weight and enable locomotion.
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.
I know its a ligament in the pelvic hip wall, but the pain is shooting thru my legs downward.
The presence of a pelvic girdle and leg bones in an adult python is an example of vestigial structures. These are anatomical remnants that were functional in ancestral species but have lost their original purpose through evolution. In pythons, these structures indicate a historical lineage that possessed limbs, though the modern snake has adapted to a limbless form for its environment and lifestyle.

The left crural refers to the left leg, more specifically to the area where the leg meets the torso. It is part of the pelvic region and is connected to the pelvis through the hip joint.
