  • lacrimal
  • inferior concha
32
Q

Which bones form part of inner nose

A

vomer and ethmoid bone

33
Q

Frontal bone

A
  • forms the forehead, anterior part of skull and roof of orbits
34
Q

Parietal bones

A
  • form greater portion of the sides and roof of the cranial cavity
  • inner surfaces contain protrusions and depressions that accommodate the blood vessels
35
Q

Temporal bones

A
  • form inferior lateral aspects of cranial cavity
36
Q

Occipital bone

A
  • forms posterior part of cranial cavity and most of cranial base
  • contains foramen magnum for spinal cord to go through
  • contains occipital condyles on either sides of foramen magnum for the atlas to articulate
37
Q

Sphenoid bone

A
  • lies at the middle part of cranial base
  • articulates with all other cranial cavity bones
  • forms part of floor, side walls and rear wall of orbit
38
Q

Ethmoid bone

A
  • forms part of anterior portion of the cranial base
  • forms medial wall of orbits
  • is the superior portion of nasal cavity that divides the nasal cavity into left and right sides
39
Q

Hyoid bone

A
  • does not articulate with any other bone
  • located between mandible and larynx and supports the tongue
  • serves as an attachment point for the tongue
40
Q

Nasal bones (2)

A

small rectangular-shaped bones that form the bridge of the nose
- resting place for eye glasses

41
Q

Lacrimal bones (2)

A
  • smallest facial bones
  • form part of the medial wall in each orbit
  • each contain a lacrimal fossa
  • a structure that gathers tears and passes them to the nasal cavity
42
Q

Palatine bones (2)

A
  • form posterior portion of hard palate
  • form small portion of floors of orbits
43
Q

Inferior nasal concha bones (2)

A
  • inferior to nasal portion of ethmoid bone
  • inferior lateral wall NOT MEDIAL
  • all 3 conchae (superior, middle, inferior) increase surface area of the nasal cavity and help swirl and filter air before it passes into the lungs
44
Q

Vomer

A
  • roughly triangular bone that forms inferior part of the nasal septum
  • extends down from perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone
45
Q

Maxillae (2)

A
  • form upper jaw bone
  • articulate with every other bone but the mandible
46
Q

Zygomatic bones (2)

A
  • cheek bones
  • form part of lateral wall of orbits
  • articulates with frontal, maxilla, sphenoid and temporal bones
47
Q

Mandible

A
  • lower jaw bone, strongest facial bone
  • attaches to temporal bone with coronoid process
48
Q

Only skull bones that move

A

mandible and ossicles

49
Q

3 Ear bones

A

malleus (hammer)
incus (anvil)
stapes (stirrup)

50
Q

The optic nerve goes through…

A

the sphenoid bone

51
Q

Cribriform plate of ethmoid bone

A

allows for passage of olfactory nerves to the roof of the nasal cavity - full of holes

52
Q

Crista galli of ethmoid bone

A

middle portion that sticks up into the cranial cavity
- serves as an attachment point for membranes surrounding the brain

53
Q

Perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone

A

descends from the under surface of the cribriform plate and assists in forming the septum of the nose

54
Q

Condylar process

A

bump on the mandible that fits into the mandibular fossa

55
Q

Mastoid

A

behind the ear

56
Q

Paranasal sinuses

A
  • mucus membrane-lined cavities in the frontal. maxillary, sphenoid and ethmoid bones
57
Q

Function of paranasal sinuses

A
  • allow the skull to increase in size without change in mass of the bone
  • used as resonating chambers to enhance the voice
  • increase the surface area of the nasal mucosa and help to moisten it as well
58
Q

By what age does intramembranous ossification of the fontanels occur

A

2 years

59
Q

Primary vs secondary curve of spinal cord

A
  • primary is single curve in baby
  • secondary is 4 curves in adults
60
Q

Secondary curve (4 curves)

A
  • cervical curve
  • thoracic curve
  • lumbar curve
  • sacral curve
61
Q

Intervertebral discs are not found in

A

C1 and occipital bone

62
Q

Function of intervertebral discs

A
  • absorb shock and separate the vertebrae from one another
63
Q

What bones allow the head to nod yes (flex and extend)

A

occipital condyle and C1

64
Q

What bones allow us to nod our head no

A

C1 and C2

65
Q

True ribs and false ribs difference

A
  • true ribs are the first 7 pairs and their cartilage connects directly to the sternum
  • false ribs: next 5 pairs that indirectly connect to the sternum or do not connect at all
66
Q

Scoliosis

A

lateral curvature (normally in thoracic region)

67
Q

A

hump back - increased thoracic curve

68
Q

A

thic - increased lumbar curvature

69
Q

A
  • minor
  • no symptoms
  • only evidence is a small dimple with a tuft of hair in the overlying skin
70
Q
