Skull Osteology & Muscles of Facial Expression Flashcards
1
Q
Which is not a function of the skull:
- support and contain the brain
- houses all the senses
- protection of the brain to some degree
- isolates the cerebral circulation
A
- houses all the senses
* the skull houses only the special senses sight, hearing, and smelling*
2
Q
Which is not a function of the skull:
- barrier against stresses due to the large masticatory and axial musculature
- bony orbit maintains to position of the eye during rotations which is necessary for binocular vision
- bony fixation of semicircular canals necessary for their function
- protesting of spinal cord
A
- protection of spinal cord

4
Q
Which bone of the skull contains:

- the suture between the parietal bones & occipital bone is called the lamboid suture
- junction of sagittal suture and lamboid suture is called the lambda
A
