HIP BONE Coxal Bone / Innominate Bone

Image
 HIP BONE Coxal Bone / Innominate Bone FEATURES •        The  hip bone is a large flat  bone , constricted in the center and expanded above and below. In some vertebrates (including humans before puberty) •        It is composed of three parts: the ilium, ischium, and the pubis •        At birth, these three components are separated by  hyaline cartilage . •        The three separate bones are join by cartilage at the acetabulum •        At puberty, these three bones are join together to form one large , irregular bone •        Hip bone articulate with the sacrum at the sacroilliac joints and form the anteriolateral wall of the pelvis   •        It form pelvic gardle •        It is homologous with scapula •  ...
