What do all the bones in both the pelvic girdle and hip bone consist of separately?
The pelvic girdle is created by two hip bones that come together and join at the symphysis pubis to create the girdle which provides support as well as protection for the lower visceral organs. The hip bones are usually referred to as the ossa coxae. The pelvic girdle is attached to the sacrum of the spinal column in the posterior region. The pelvis is constructed from the form given by the deep basin structure the ossa coxae form when they come together. The sacrum and the coccyx also give definition to this unique shape. The pelvic girdle shares the responsibility of supporting the body weight, particularly that which the spine produces. In a pregnant female body, the pelvic girdle also protects a developing fetus. The reproductive organs, the bladder, and other visceral organs are well within the framework that produces protection.The coxa is created from 3 various bones. The ilium, the ischium, and the pubis become fused in the grown adult body. Along the lateral surface after the 3 bones have undergone ossification, a wide ovular depression receives the head of the femur. This depression or indentation is known as the acetabulum. Despite the adult process of ossification of the hip bones, these bones are still considered 3 various bones.See Medicalook.com

This is a tricky question as it is not clear which end of the spine we are referring to. At the head end there is a bone or vertebra upon which the head is resting this is known as the atlas, it does not have a body and its centrum fuses with the axis to provide a pivot for the head to turn on. At the other end of the spine - the tail end the last bones are fused together to form the coccyx, the number may vary from 3 to 5. These bones are rudimanetary and are usually fused together.
