Answer:

1) pubis

Explanation:

The pelvic girdle is made up of two hipbones, sacrum and coccyx. The hipbones also called coxal bones has three parts: ilium, ischium, and pubis. Pubis makes the anterior and inferior part of the hip bone. The joint between two pubes of hipbones is called pubic symphysis. Placenta of pregnant women produces more relaxin during later stages of pregnancy to facilitate childbirth. The hormone relaxin increases the flexibility of pubis symphysis to ease the delivery of the baby by dilation of the uterine cervix.

How do cells maintain water balance through osmosis?
neonofarm [45]
Water then moves from cell to cell through the root cortex by osmosisalong a concentration gradient; this means that each cell is hypertonic to the one before it. In the centre of the root the water enters the xylem vessels. Water may move by diffusionthrough the cell walls and intercellular spaces.

What do you think would happen to the process of cell division if there is a deficiency in the Golgi apparatus's ability to pack
Harrizon [31]

Explanation:

Without the golgi apparatus or if its not working as well as it should be there would be no lysosomes or less. Without the lysosomes there will be a lot of junk/trash in the cell and it would have no way to break it down and get it out
