Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The male skeleton has heavier bones than the female skeleton, particularly in the skull, jaw, and long bones. Additionally, the male skeleton has rougher, larger tuberosities and ridges for attaching muscles, due to their greater muscle mass. Finally, the pelvic inlet of the male skeleton is heart-shaped, while the female skeleton has a wider, oval-shaped pelvic inlet, due to the need for a larger birth canal.
