maxillae
vomer
ethmoid
sphenoid
inferior nasal concha

What does the vomer articulate with?
maxillae
sphenoid
ethmoid
palatine
cartilage of nasal septum

glenohumeral
What bones does the term "arm" refer to?
just the humerus
What is another way to refer to the coronoid process of the ulna?
inferior lip of trochlear notch.
What does the styloid process of the ulna attach to?
the articular disc between forearm and wrist
What is the importance of the radial tuberosity?
that's where the biceps attach
What is the importance of the styloid process of the radius?
it stabilizes the wrist
Tell, in anatomical terms, what bone you would damage if you hit the tip of your little finger with a hammer.
