Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL I. The Skull a. A human skeleton consists of ______________(#) bones that, except for the lower jaw (mandible) are firmly interlocked along ___________________ i. Definition of suture: b. Two Main Parts of the Skull: i._____________________________ 1. Number of bones: 2. Main functions of the bones: 3. Some cranial bones contain air-­‐filled cavities called ____________________________, which are lined with mucous membranes and connect by passageways to the nasal cavity. 4. Sinuses reduced the ________________ of the skull and increase the intensity of the ______________ by serving as resonant sound chambers. 5. Bones of the skull: Major Parts of the Location of the Major What does this part Markings/Special Differences in Cranium Part form? Features/Appearance Infants vs. Adults 1. FRONTAL BONE -­‐Anterior portion -­‐Forehead, roof of -­‐Supraorbital foramen on -­‐Single bone in above the eyes nasal cavity, roof of upper portion of orbits adults; two bones in orbits (eye sockets) -­‐Two frontal sinuses infants (fuse at age above the eyes 5-­‐6) 2. PARIETAL BONE -­‐Each side of the skull -­‐Bulging sides and -­‐Shaped like a curved behind the frontal bone roof of cranium plate and has four borders -­‐Fused at midline along the sagittal suture -­‐Meet frontal bone along the coronal suture Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL 3. OCCIPITAL BONE 4. TEMPORAL BONE -­‐Joins pariteal bones along the lamboid suture -­‐Back of the skull & base of cranium -­‐Foramen magnum on lower surface What two things forms a connection here? -­‐Rounded occipital condyles on each side of foramen magnum articulate with the vertebrate of the vertebral column -­‐On each side of the -­‐Parts of the sides and -­‐External acoustic skull the base of the (auditory) meatus – leads -­‐Joins parietal bone cranium to inner part of the ear along squamous suture -­‐ Mainibular fossae: articulate with condyles & mandibles -­‐Mastoid process What does this provide attachments for? -­‐Styloid process (below each auditory meatus) What muscles does this process anchor? -­‐Caratoid canal: opening Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL 5. SPHENOID BONE -­‐Wedged between bones of anterior part of the cranium 6. ETHMOID BONE -­‐In front of the sphenoid bone that transmits the internal caotid artery -­‐Jugular formane: accommodates the jugular vein -­‐Zygomatic process: projects from temporal bone & connects to zygomatic bone What does this help form? -­‐Base of cranium, -­‐Central part and two sides of the skull, & winglike structures that floors and sides of extend laterally toward orbits each side of the skull -­‐Sella turcica: saddle-­‐
shaped; along midline; indention What is held here? -­‐Two sphenoidal sinuses side by side separated by septum that projects into the nasal cavity -­‐Part of the roof of the -­‐Two masses, one on each nasal cavity side of nasal cavity, which -­‐Sections of the are joined horizontally by cranial floor, orbital thin cribriform plates walls & nasal cavity -­‐Olfactory foramina: Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL walls What are the nerves associated with that pass through here? -­‐Perpendicular plate projects downward in the midline from the cribriform plates to form most of the nasal septum -­‐Superior nasal concha (scroll shaped plates) & middle nasal concha project inward from lateral portions of etmoid bone toward perpendicular plate (support mucus membranes that line nasal cavity) -­‐Ethmoidal sinuses: lateral portions of etmoid bone; small air spaces -­‐Crista galli: projects upward into cranial cavity between cribriform plates; triangular shaped; membranes that enclose the brain attach to this process Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL ii. _____________________________ 1. Number of bones: 2. Description: Major Categories of Facial Bones 1. MAXILLARY BONES Location of the Major Part What does this part form? -­‐Upper jaw -­‐Keystone of the face (all other immovable facial bones articulate with them) -­‐Anterior roof of mouth (hard palate) -­‐Floors of orbits -­‐Sides & floor of nasal cavity Markings/Special Features/Appearance -­‐Maxillary sinuses: inside the maxillae, lateral to the nasal cavity (largest of sinuses and extends from the floor of the orbits to the roof of upper teeth) -­‐Palatine processes: forms anterior portion Differences in Infants vs. Adults -­‐Palantine processes in developing fetus are not fused in infants; fuse together during development at the midline or median palatine suture -­‐What does an incomplete fusion of the palatine Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL 2. PALATINE BONES -­‐Behind the maxillae 3. ZYGOMATIC BONES 4. LACRIMAL BONES -­‐Between the ethmoid bone & maxilla -­‐Posterior section of the hard palate -­‐Floor of nasal cavity -­‐Perpendicular portions help form the lateral walls of the nasal cavity -­‐Lateral walls and floors of orbits -­‐Prominences of cheeks of hard palate -­‐Alveolar process: inferior border of each maxillary bone that projects down; together forms a horseshoe shape alveolar arch (teeth occupy this cavity) -­‐Dense connective tissue binds teeth to the bony sockets -­‐L-­‐shaped processes of the maxillae cause in infants? What problems can this cause? What can be done to correct this? -­‐Temporal process: extends posteriorly to join the zygomatic processes of a temporal bone -­‐Part of medial walls of -­‐Thin, scale-­‐like orbits -­‐Groove in anterior portion that leads from the orbit to nasal cavity to provide pathway for a channel Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL 5. NASAL BONES 6. VOMER BONE -­‐Along midline within -­‐Nasal septum the nasal cavity -­‐Joins perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone -­‐Attached to lateral walls of the nasal cavity -­‐Below the superior and middle nasal conchae of the ethmoid bone -­‐Lower jawbone 7. INFERIOR NASAL CONCHAE 8. MANDIBLE -­‐Bridge of nose What does this channel carry? -­‐Long, thin, rectangular -­‐Lie side-­‐by-­‐side & are fused at the midline What attaches to these bones? -­‐Thin & flat -­‐Fragile, scroll-­‐like -­‐Support mucous membranes within the nasal cavity -­‐Horizontal, horseshoe-­‐ shaped body with a flat ramus projecting upward at each end -­‐Rami divided into posterior manibular condyle (articulate Name: _________________________________ PHYSIOLOGY 336 – THE SKULL with manibular fossae of the temporal bones) & anterior coronoid process (provide attachment for muscles used in chewing) -­‐Alveolar Border – contains hollow sockets that bear the lower teeth -­‐Mandibular foramen What purpose does this serve? -­‐Mental foramen – branches of blood vessels & nerve emerge from mandible and travel through; opens on outside near point of jaw What does this supply?
