Quote p. 5

CAPUT SECUNDUM.

A Cerebro ut Principio initium.

…

23. Nec mirum id, nam quod magis est ab inferiori interiori subintrat acetabulum sub margine cartilaginoso formans ligamentum teres, inter condylos femoris ligamentum ciruciale articulationis cum tibia.

Translation

CHAPTER TWO.

Beginning with the Brain as a Principle.

…

23. And this is not surprising, because a round ligament is formed from the lower inner part of the acetabulum under the cartilaginous edge, and between the condyles of the femur there is a cruciate ligament connecting it to the tibia.

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).

The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser. Quote p. 307 Ligament inter-articulaire, ligament intérieur, (ligament rond desauteurs). Ce ligament occupe l'intérieur de l'articulation, étendu de la tête du fémur à la cavité cotyloïde. Il a plutôt la forme d'un triangle à base appuyée sur la cavité cotyloïde que celle d'un faisceau arrondi, comme l'indiquerait sa dénomination de ligament rond. Il se fixe, supérieurement, sur l'enfoncement du sommet de la tète du fémur, et en bas, sur les deux bords de l'échancrure interne de la cavité cotyloïde, au moyen de deux faisceaux distincts réunis par la membrane synoviale. Arrondi vers le fémur, le ligament inter-articulaire est aplati du côté de l'os cox...
