Pelvic cavity in human female is :

  • A.Longer and more conical
  • B.Shorter, more cylindrical and more spacious
  • C.Shorter, conical and less spacious
  • D.Longer, less cylindrical and less spacious

Answer: B

The female pelvic cavity is shorter, more cylindrical and more spacious.

The female pelvis is adapted for childbirth. Its cavity is wide and shallow, roughly cylindrical, with a round inlet, a wide subpubic angle and a broad sciatic notch, which is why the pelvis is the most reliable bone for sexing a skeleton.

A longer, conical (funnel-shaped) and less spacious cavity is the male pattern, so the options describing a longer or conical, less spacious cavity describe the male pelvis.
