Question

Which joint is more flexible in males than females?

• A. Public symphysis
• B. Deltoid ridge
• C. Deltoid tuberosity
• D. Sacroiliac joint

Answer 1

The correct option is A Public symphysis

The hip girdle is located in the lower part of the trunk.

It is made up of three bones that are upper ileum, lower ischium, and the pubis.

The acetabulum is formed by ileum, ischium, and pubis but in mammals, the pubis is replaced by the cotyloid bone.

The pubic symphysis is present in mammals. The two innominate bones and sacrum together form a sort of bowel.

This is also an adaptation for the upright posture of the human body. The female pelvis is larger and has a broader front and larger bottom opening than the male pelvis. This is an adaptation for childbirth.

So, the correct option is option A.
