Pelvis

and more. The Missionary position This is the most common sexual position and is in fact the most effective means to conceive. In this position, the woman lies on her back while the man is on top doing the deed. Why is this effective? The woman’s pelvis is not…

A subdiscipline of physical anthropology that uses the characteristics of bone structure to determine the identity of human remains and present those findings in a court of law. A biological profile is a set of characteristics that an individual possessed while alive that can also be determined from their remains. The “big four” elements that make up a biological profile are Age Geographic ancestry Sex Stature (height while alive) Dental Development Observation of stage of tooth formation…

my alignment. I want to be able to work on my anterior pelvic tilt, so that I can form my spine into neutral alignment during class. I hope that fixing my pelvis can allow me to use more of my rotation and turn out. I also want to improve the use of my rotators and turn out muscles, without gripping my glutes or quads. Ultimately, my pelvis naturally tilts forward to where I would look as if my bottom was sticking out. This issue has always been a part of my dancing, where I am not finding the…

this method because it damages the bones. They can find the gender by looking at several different bones, the pelvis, skull and the collarbone. A male’s pelvis is much narrower and heart-shaped. While on the other hand women have a wide and shallow pelvis so it’s easier to give birth. But to do this the victim has must gone through puberty first. Another thing you can figure out from the pelvis is how much times a female has given birth. When you…

will identify the age of the decedent through the pelvis and the skull. The pelvis is the easiest skull to decipher to determine the age of the deceased. The pelvis bone is able to determine the gender of a person after they have went through puberty. After a girl has gone through puberty her pelvis bones spread; therefore, a woman’s hip is more ample than a man’s. In addition, if a woman gave birth then I would be able to know through the pelvis because the pubic bones will spread apart in a…

How can dead men tell tales. Forensic anthropologists might have an idea on how they tell tales. To tell a tale anthropologists receive bones of the deceased and examine them in many different ways. First they start at the skull finding the age, race and gender. To find out how old the person was when they were killed they can look at the teeth, collar bone, the pubic symphysis and some more bones. For age they look at the shape, size and if they are fused with one another. How many bones a…

Rui Lu Pig kidney dissection Purpose By cutting open the pig kidney, to figure out the following parts: capsule, cortex, medulla, pyramid, papilla, column, major calyx, minor calyx, hilus, renal artery, renal vein, pelvis, sinus and ureter of the kidney. Hypothesis If we dissect a pig kidney, then we will find many similarities to the human kidney because we have learned that mammalian kidneys are similar. Experiment Background: The urinary system is one of the biggest and the most…

Johanson’s discovery in 1974 filled up the empty gaps. He found almost half of a skeleton of Lucy. The skeleton included a skull, pelvis and a knee joint. Lucy got its name from the Beatles song, Lucy in the sky with diamonds which was playing in the camp the night of the discovery. Lucy knee joint was like the one he had found in the previous year. The knee joint locked together perfectly…

Ardipithecus pelvis appears to be transitional between being suited for climbing in trees and being modified for walking on two legs (Kottak, 2015). A fairly complete skeleton of Ardipithecus ramidus, named “Ardi” is the earliest known hominin Australopithecus afarensis lived around 3 million years ago (Kottak, 2015). Fossils, including the well know skeleton named “Lucy”, show that they had a mixture of apelike and hominin characteristics (Kottak, 2015). The lower spine, hip joint, pelvis, and…

while advanced disease refers to cancers that have invaded nearby organs or lymph nodes in the pelvis or groins. Imaging studies should include CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis and a chest X-ray at minimum. Staging may also include a PET/CT scan. This imaging test allows the radiologist as well as the treating cancer specialists to see if the anal cancer has spread to involve lymph nodes in the groin or pelvis, or metastasized to other sites in the body such as the liver or…
