Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line

front 23

Distinguish between true and false pelvis.

back 23

False pelvis makes up the larger part of the pelvis. Superior. Supports abdominal viscera.

True pelvis is the inferior region, and the cavity is short and small-bowled shape that encases the urinary bladder and reproductive organs

front 24

For what anatomical reason do women appear to be slightly knock-kneed?

Women have wider pelvises than men. Angle of hips turn slightly inward, giving that appearance.
