Your answer

Answer 1

This is a woman's skeleton.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the skeleton shown in the question above has narrow bones in the hips and women, in general, have wider bones in the hips than men, we can say that the skeleton mentioned above belongs to a biological woman. This is because we know that this skeleton has a 101 degree subpubic angle, however, the subpubic angle in male pelves varies from 70 to 75 degrees.
