cranial:


*hold/protect brain


*house ear ossicles (cavities for orbits/ears)


*muscle attachment for jaw, neck & facial muscles




facial


*forms basic facial structure


*supports entrances to digestive & respiratory systems

which bone does these landmarks belong to? define the landmarks



1. external auditory meatus


2. mastoid process


3. styloid process

temporal bone




external: ear canal




mastoid: inferior to external auditory meatus, attachment point for certain neck muscles




styloid: sharp narrow stick, attachment of ligaments & muscles for tongue

which bone does these landmarks belong to? define the landmarks




1. occipital condyle


2. foramen magnum


3. external occipital protuberance

occipital bone




occipital: articulates with atlas (spinal cord)




foramen: brain stem




external: attachment for ligamentum nuchae, keeps head steady

define sutures of the skull and identify the 4 types

def: connects bone & skull, immovable fibrous joints




sagittal suture: connects parietal




coronal suture: connects frontal to both parietals




squamous suture: parietal, temporal




lambdoid suture: partietal, occipital

what is the keystone bone? why is it the keystone bone

sphenoid bone that articulates w/ all cranial bones

what is the sella turcica & optic foramen? what bone does this belong to?

sellia: houses pituitary gland




optic: a whole for nerves for eye passing through sphenoid bone




sphenoid bone

to which bone those these bony landmarks belong to?




1. crista galli


2. cribriform plate


3. superior & middle nasal conchae

ethmoid




1. crista galli: connective tissue points, membrane attachment points (hat)




2. cribriform plate: contains olfactory foramina




3. superior & middle nasal conchae: filtration, mucus membrane

what makes up the facial bones?

2 lacrimal bones


2 nasal bones


2 inferior nasal conchae


1 mandible


2 maxilla bone


2 palatine bone


2 zygomatic bone


1 vomer
