How is the sciatic notch used to determine gender?

The sciatic notch, the space between the ischial spine and ischial tuberosity in the pelvis, can be used to determine gender by its width and angle. In general, males tend to have narrower and deeper sciatic notches compared to females, whose notches are wider and more shallow. This difference is due to variations in pelvic shape and is used in biological anthropology and forensic science to assess gender in skeletal remains.


How do scientists know whether skeletal remains are male or female?

If the pelvic bone is present there is a difference between the male and female pelvic bone. The female is wider on the inside to account for birthing a baby through. Answer Also, if the skull is present, the brow on the male is typically more pronounced and thick. The lateral flare of the ramus portion of the mandible is also more pronounced in males than in females.

Average length and width of onion epidermal cells?

The average length of an onion cell ranges from 0.25 mm or 250 microns to 0.4 mm or 400 microns. No one has actually measured the width of an onion cell but from the diameter of the field of view in a microscope and comparing the length to the width, I would say that the width is about a quarter or third of the length. Therefore, the width would have to be somewhere between 0.06 to 0.08 mm.
