The hip bones are located on both sides of the pelvis.
The hip bone is a large, irregular bone that swells irregularly upward and downward from the center. In some vertebrates (including prepubescent humans), it consists of three parts: the ilium, ischium, and pubis.
The two hip bones join at the pubic symphysis and, together with the sacrum and coccyx (the pelvic portion of the spine), form the bony component of the pelvis, the pelvic girdle that surrounds the pelvic cavity. They connect at the sacroiliac joints to the sacrum, which is part of the axial skeleton. Each hip bone is connected to the corresponding femur (thigh bone) at the hip by a large ball-and-socket joint (which forms the main connection between the lower limb bones and the axial skeleton).
Extended information
The functions of human bones:
1. Supporting function: Different bones of the human body are connected together through joints, muscles, ligaments and other tissues. Overall, it supports the body. If humans had no bones, they would just be a pile of soft tissue lying on the ground. It would be impossible to stand, let alone walk. ?
2. Protection: Human bones are like a framework, protecting important organs of the human body to avoid "interference" and damage from external forces as much as possible. For example, the skull protects brain tissue, the spine and ribs protect the heart and lungs, and the pelvic bones protect the bladder, uterus, etc. Without the protection of bones, external impacts and blows can easily damage internal organs.
