Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. The bone of the pelvic girdle which has four bony projections is termed as ilium.
  2. The four bony projections present on the ilium are called as iliac spines.
  3. The iliac spines acts as points where the muscles and ligaments can attach.
  4. The four projections are :
  • Anterior superior iliac spine
  • Anterior inferior iliac spine
  • Posterior superior iliac spine
  • Posterior inferior iliac spine

Out of these four spines it is the anterior superior iliac spines that are palpable and are felt while putting hands on the hips.
