Answer:
The pelvis changed from being tall and flat from front to back to being much shorter and more bowl-shaped, giving better leverage for the muscles that move the hip in upright walking. The angle of the thigh bone changed to point inwards, bringing our feet more directly under the centre of our bodies.
