ala and vertical plate
Name the markings on the palatine bones
orbital process, perpendicular plate and horizontal plate.
Names the markings on the maxilla
frontal process, orbital rim, inferior orbital fissure, orbital surgace, infraorbital forament, anterior nasal spine, zygomatic process, alveolar process.
Names the markings of the mandible
mindibular condyles, ramus, body, angle, mental foramen, mental protuberance, alveolar process, coronoid process, mandibular forament, mylohyoid line
What do the sinuses do?
have a mucous lining that helps to humidify and warm inhaled air, cause the skull bones to be lighter, provide resonance to the voice.
What are the bones of the orbits?
sphenoid, frontal, maxilla, lacrimal, ethmoid, palatine, zygomatic
Name the markings of the hyoid bone
body, greater cornu and lesser cornu. It is the only bone that doesn't articulate with other bones. Between the mandible and the larynx and serves as an attachement for the tonge.
Names the auditory ossocles
malleus, incus, stapes
What are fontaneles and name them
Region between cranial bones that are thickened fibrous membrance remnants that are not yet ossified. On a baby's head and close by 15 months. This helps the cranial bones overlap during birth. Anterior, posterior, sphenoidal, and mastoidal
List the functions of the vertebral column
Provides vertical support for the body, supports the weight of the head, helps to maintain an upright body position, housing and protection for the spinal cord and provides a passageway for spinal nerves connecting to the spinal cord.
Name the vertebral divisions

What is kyphosis?
hunchback
What is lordosis?
swayback
What is scoliosis?
lateral curvature of the spine
Name the parts of a vertebrae
transverse process, superior and inferior articulating processes and facets, vertebral foramen, intervertebral forament, spinous process, lamina, pedicle, and body
What is unique about cervical vertebra?
They have transverse forament and bifid spinous process
Name the parts of the vertebral disks.
anulus fibrosus externally and mucleus pulposus in the middle
What is the first cervical vertebra called?
atlas
What is the second cervical vertebra called?
axis with a dens for pivoting with the atlas
What is unique about thoracic vertebrae?
they have transverse costal facets and demifacets and very sharp spinous processes.
What is unique about lumbar vertebrae?
large and chunky with spinous processes that are round, big, blunt and short.
What is the thoracic cage?
thoracic vertebrae posteriorly, ribs leterally and sternum anteriorly. Serves as a protective cage around vital organs.
Name the parts of the sternum
manubrium, clavicular notches, costal notch, sternal angle, body and xiphoid process
What are true ribs?
the first seven because they connect individually to the sternum bo costal cartilages
What are false ribs?
ribs 8-12. ribs 8-10 fuse to the costal cartilage of rib 7 and indirectly articulate with the sternum
What are floating ribs?
ribs 11 and twelve because they have no connection with the sternum
Name the parts of the costae
head, neck, tubercle, angle, shaft, and costal groove
What is the appendicular skeleton?
the appendages or upper and lower limbs and the girdles that attache them to the axial skeleton
