A

5

51
Q

the weight of the upper body is transferred to the lower body through the _______ joint

2) posterior sacroiliac ligament
3) iliolumbar ligament
4) sucrospinous ligament
5) sucrotuberous ligament

53
Q

A

posterior aspect of the sacrum to ischial tuberosity

58
Q

what is the purpose of the anterior sacroiliac ligament, the posterior sacroiliac ligament and the iliolumbar ligament?

to resist the pulling apart of the innominate bones

59
