Articulates with the coxal bone?

The femur articulates with the coxal bone at the hip joint. This joint is a ball-and-socket joint, allowing for a wide range of movement in the hip. The femur head fits into the acetabulum of the coxal bone.


What is the acetabulofemoral?

* 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.


What is the cuplike depression of the OS coxa into which the head of the femur fits?

The cuplike depression of the OS coxa into which the head of the femur fits is called the acetabulum. It forms the hip joint by articulating with the femoral head, allowing for a wide range of motion in the hip joint.


The femur joins with the tibia at its distal end and fits into what at its proximal end?

The femur fits into the acetabulum at its proximal end.


With what part of the hip bone does The head of the femur articulate?

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.


Fits between the femur and tibia?

What attaches to the acetabulum?

Femur (thigh bone) fits into acetabulum.


Where are the femurs in the body?

Your femur, or thighbone, is the largest bone in your body. We have 2 femur, 1 each leg. The head of your femur fits into your hip socket and the bottom end connects to your knee.


What forms a joint with the hip bone?

The part of the hip bone that forms the hip joint is actually formed from two of the three fused paired bones - the ischium and the ilium, which are shaped into the acetabulum. The distal articulating bone is the femur, specifically the head of the femur.Femur & coxarum form the hip joint.The hip bone, also called the pelvis, is made of three fused pairs of bones: the ilium, the ischium and the pubis. The pelvis has a socket called the acetabulum, where the head of the femur bone fits in - this is the hip joint.


Are sutures found in the acetabulum?

No, sutures are not naturally found in the acetabulum. The acetabulum is a concave socket in the pelvis where the head of the femur fits to form the hip joint. Sutures are fibrous joints found in the skull where bones articulate.

What is the Humeral head of the hip bone?

The humeral head is not a component of the hip bone; rather, it is part of the shoulder joint. In the hip, the corresponding structure is the femoral head, which is the rounded upper end of the femur that fits into the acetabulum of the pelvis, forming the hip joint. The hip bone, or pelvis, consists of three fused bones: the ilium, ischium, and pubis. These bones provide support and stability for the body and facilitate movement at the hip joint.
