Predict what might happen if the greater sciatic notch of the ilium were abnormally small and narrow. explain. (hint: consider the function of this notch.)

In males, even if the greater sciatic notches of the ilium are unusually small and narrow, it will not cause any modifications. However, in females, if the greater sciatic notches of the ilium were unusually small and narrow, then it would become difficult for the baby to pass through the pelvis at the time of delivery, thus resulting in complications during childbirth.  

Due to this, the normal delivery would get complicated resulting in breathing complications and may even be fatal for the child.  

The large, inverted U-shaped depression found in the posterior margin of the lower ilium is known as the greater sciatic notch. The marginally bent posterior margin of the ischium above the ischial tuberosity is the lesser sciatic notch. The body protrusion distinguishing the greater sciatic notch and the lesser sciatic notch is the ischial spine.  

The greater sciatic notch of the male hip bone is deeper and narrower in comparison to the broader notch of the females. As the female pelvis is amended for childbirth, it is broader in comparison to the male pelvis, as proved by the distance between the anterior superior iliac spines.  

you know they are heterozygous for a trait because they have it as jj or jj.
