foramen ovale
foramen rotundum
Which of the following cranial nerves travels through the foramen ovale?
Ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V1)
Maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V2)
Mandiular division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V3)
Mandibular divison of the trigeminal nerve (CNV3)
Which structure transmits the oculomotor, trochlear and abducent nerves?
Optic canals
Superior orbital fissure
Stylomastoid foramen
superior orbital fissure
True or False: The lacrimal, zygomatic and nasal bones are paired bones of the viscerocranium.
True
What bones articulate to form the temporomandibular joint?
Mandible and temporal bones
Mandible and occipital bones
Maxilla and temporal bones
Mandible and temporal bones
True or False: The mandible allows for three degrees of freedom: elevation/depression, protraction/ retraction, and lateral excursions.
True synovial joint
The ethmoid, sphenoid, maxillary and lacrimal bones make up which wall of the body orbit?
Superior
Inferior
Medial
Lateral
Medial
Which of the following structures of the lacrimal apparatus collects lacrimal fluid and conveys It to the lacrimal sac?
Lacrimal gland
Canaliculi
Nasolacrimal duct
Canaliculi
Explanation
The canaliculi take up lacrimal fluid that accumulates in the lacrimal lake (located at the medial angle of the eye). The lacrimal gland produces lacrimal fluid . The nasolacrimal duct allows fluid that has been conveyed to the lacrimal sac to pass to the nasopharynx.
Adduction/ abduction movement of the eyeball occur around a vertical axis of rotation.
True
LR 6 SO 4 AO3
LR= Lacteral rectus innervated by cranial nerve 6
SO= Superior oblique innervated by cranial nerve 4
AO= All Other innervated by cranial nerve 3
