9. During development they are
separated from each other by
the Triradiate Cartilage

21. Ischial
Tuberosity
The Ischial Tuberosity is
the part of the Hip Bone
upon which the upper
body rests when a person
is seated

22. The Ischial Tuberosity is
the part of the Hip Bone
upon which the upper
body rests when a person
is seated
Hip Bone has been tilted
to demonstrate the
ischial tuberosity

23. Ischial Spine
Hip Bone has been tilted
to demonstrate the
ischial spine

24. The ‘Hole’ in the Hip Bone
is the
Obturator Foramen
