Human’s femur angles inward and is also very long allowing us to be more efficient walkers. For apes in order to climb they must have a mobile knee to help the knee rotate. Human’s knee‚ on the contrary‚ needs to be more stable to support the upper bodies weight and to increase balance. e. Pelvis In order for the pelvis to support the internal organs while humans

These soft tissues of the pelvis derive their eventual support from the bony pelvis. Uterine prolapse yields a sensation of pelvic discomposure‚ aggravated in the erect position.
