26
Q

located at the anterior part of the base of the skull and binds the other cranial bones together

A

Sphenoid

27
Q

a horizontal plate that forms the roof of the nasal cavity and closes the anterior part of the base of the cranium

A

Ethmoid

28
Q

A

zygomatic bone,
temporal process of zygomatic
zygomatic process of temporal

33
Q

bones of upper jaw; form the skeletal base for most the superior portion of the face, anterior roof of the mouth, sides and floor of nasal cavity and floor of the orbits

A

Maxilla

34
Q

What does the Maxilla articulate with?
