Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 1.1CT
Examine the male and female pelves. Look for major differences between them. Note especially the flare of the iliac bones: the angle of the pubic arch, the distance between the ischial spines and ischial tuberosities: and the curve and width of the sacrum. In what ways are the differences you observed related to the function of the female pelvis as a birth canal?
