Answer:

The sacrum articulates with the ilium.

Explanation:

The sacrum is a bone formed by the sacral vertebrae, which have fused to give this bone. Above it articulates with the lumbar vertebra, below with the coccyx, which is the last section of the vertebrae column. Lastly, it articulates with the ilium at the sides. The ilium is one of the three bones that makes the hip bone. It is the largest one and in the upper part of the hip bone.

The ischium and pubis, which are the other two bones that form the hip bone, do not articulate with the sacrum, but they articulate with the ilium and with each other.

How do frogs utilize extensor and flexor muscles in order to swim, jump, and do other frog things efficiently; include specific

ahrayia [7]

The structure of the feet and legs varies greatly among frog species, depending in part on whether they live primarily on the ground, in water, in trees or in burrows. Frogs must be able to move quickly through their environment to catch prey and escape predators, and numerous adaptations help them to do so. Most frogs are either proficient at jumping or are descended from ancestors that were, with much of the musculoskeletal morphology modified for this purpose. The tibia, fibula, and tarsals have been fused into a single, strong bone, as have the radius and ulna in the fore limbs (which must absorb the impact on landing). The metatarsals have become elongated to add to the leg length and allow the frog to push against the ground for a longer period on take-off. The illium has elongated and formed a mobile joint with the sacrum which, in specialist jumpers such as ranids and hylids, functions as an additional limb joint to further power the leaps. The tail vertebrae have fused into a urostyle which is retracted inside the pelvis. This enables the force to be transferred from the legs to the body during a leap 
The muscular system has been similarly modified. The hind limbs of ancestral frogs presumably contained pairs of muscles which would act in opposition (one muscle to flex the knee, a different muscle to extend it), as is seen in most other limbed animals. However, in modern frogs, almost all muscles have been modified to contribute to the action of jumping, with only a few small muscles remaining to bring the limb back to the starting position and maintain posture. The muscles have also been greatly enlarged, with the main leg muscles accounting for over 17% of the total mass of the frog.
