Which hip bone forms the superioir part of the pelvic girlde that extends upward from the acetabulum
Mars2501 [29]

The ischium bone forms the superior part of the pelvic girdle.

<h3>What is the structure of the pelvic girdle?</h3>

In the bottom region of the trunk, there is a bony structure known as the pelvic girdle that resembles a ring. It joins the lower limbs to the axial skeleton. There are two types of pelvises: the bigger pelvic and the lesser pelvis.

The pelvis is made up of two paired hipbones that are joined at the pubic symphysis in front and by the sacrum in back. Each hipbone is composed of three bones: the blade-shaped ilium above and to either side, which determines the hips' width; the ischium below, on which the weight is placed when sitting; and the pubis in front. Early in maturity, all three come together at a triangle suture in the acetabulum, the cup-shaped socket that connects to the head of the femur to create the hip joint.
