Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The coccygeus and levator ani muscles both form the pelvic floor. The coccygeus muscle, also known as the ischiococcygeus muscle, attaches to the ischial spine and the coccyx bone. The levator ani muscle is a broad flat muscle that spans the pelvic cavity and helps support the pelvic organs. The two muscles work together to create a muscular sling-like structure that supports the pelvic organs and forms the pelvic floor.
