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.
* deep socket in the coxal bone* formed where the ilium, ischium, and pubis bones fuse* the head of the femur, the thigh bone, fits in the acetabulumAcetabulum is the area on the pelvis where the head of the femur joins the pelvis. It is a concave surface that allows for the forming of the hip joint which allows you kick your leg up.The hip has these two bowl shaped regions into which the upper femur fits. This is the hip joint. That bowl shaped region is called the acetabulum.
The head of the femur articulates with the os coxa (pelvis) at the acetabulum. The acetabulum is the rounded socket that the head of the femur fits into. It also allows sliding of the pelvic bones and rotation. This joint is a synovial joint and is an example of a "ball-and-socket" joint.
Those bones are the tarsals, which make the ankle.The distal ends of the tibia and fibula articulate with a single tarsal bone called the talus.footfoottarsal bones
It is the biggest bone in the human body situated in the thigh.
The Femur in the ThighThe femur is the longest bone in the human body; it is located in the thigh. It is also known as the thigh bone (Femur is the technical word).
The coxal bone is part of the hip joint.The longest bone in the body is the femur, thigh bone, which is a ball and socket joint with the hip joint or coxal bone.

The bone on the top of your leg is called your femur or your thigh bone.

The penis is a soft tissue structure and is not part of the pelvic bone.
The pelvis protects the spinal cord more effectively than the femur. The spinal cord is encased within the vertebral column, which is part of the spine, and the pelvic bones provide support and protection to the lower part of the spine. The femur, being the thigh bone, does not provide any protection to the spinal cord.
No, the femur is the thigh bone, in the upper part of the leg, above the knee.
The most anterior part of the pelvic bone is the pubic symphisis.
It is part of the femur which is the long bone in the leg.
The femur is a bone so it is part of the skeletal system. The femur is the biggest leg bone. It takes 260 pounds of force to break it.
A previous wiki answer by jpkeith:The Femur. It is, incidentally, also the largest bone in the entire body.Read more: What_is_the_largest_bone_in_the_lower_extremity
