Explanation / Answer

The matching description for the following anatomical structures are given below,

Ilium - originating site for gluteal muscles

Pubis - anterior pelvic bones

Ischium - posterior pelvic bones (sit bones)

Sacrum - inferior to L5 vertebrae

Sacro-iliac joint - articulation between sacrrum and ilium

Acetabulum - articular surface of hip joint

Coccyx - inferior to sacrum

Greater trochanter - articulates with the acetabulum

Lesser trochanter - insertion for iliopsoas muscle

Tarsal bones - bones of the midfoot

Pubic symphisis - articulation between the pubic bones

Talocrural joint - ankle joint

Tibia - weight bearing bone of the legs

Fibula - Non-weight bearing bone of the leg

Metatarsal bones - bones of the fore foot

Tibialfemoral joint - knee joint

Femoral acetabular joint - hip joint

Lumbar vertebrae - superior to the sacrum

Calcaneum - attachment site for the achilles tendon

Talus - articulates with the tibia

Patellar - anatomical pulley for quadriceps muscle

Epiphyseal plate - found in children

Epiphyseal line - found in adults

Femur - largest bone in the body
