Question
Answer
External Auditory meatus of the temporal bone   tube like opening for the ear canal  
🗑
mastoid process of the temporal bone   rounded projection posterior to external auditory meatus--also an attachment for muscles  
🗑
styloid process of the temporal bone   long, thin projection on inferior skull surface--attachment for muscles and ligaments of tongue and neck  
🗑
zygomatic process of the temporal bone   projection that articulates with the zygomatic bone  
🗑
madibular fossa of the temporal bone   depression in mandible for articulation w/ condylar process  
🗑
Foramen magnum of the occipital bone   opening where the spinal cord connects to the lower braing  
🗑
occipital condyles of the occipital bone   rounded processes that articulate with the atlas  
🗑
Cribriform plates of the ethmoid bone   one on eiether sid of the crista galli -- forms the roof of the nasal cavity  
🗑
crista galli of the ethmoid bone   projection for attachment of membranes covering the brain  
🗑
olfactory foramina of the ethmoid bone   tiny holes in the cribiform plates for cranial nerve 1  
🗑
perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone   forms superior part of nasal septum  
🗑
middle nasal conchae and superior nasal conchae of the ethmoid bone   scroll-like projections on each lateral wall of the nasal cavity  
🗑
sella turcica of the sphenoid bone   cony projection that surrounds and protects the pituitary gland  
🗑
optica foramina of the sphenoid bone   openings for cranial nerve 2  
🗑
alveoli of the maxilla bone   tooth sockets  
🗑
palatine process of the maxilla bone   fused processes that form the anterior part of the hard palate  
🗑
alveoli of the mandible bone   tooth sockets  
🗑
body of the mandible bone   curved anterior portion of mandible  
🗑
rami (ramus) of the mandible bone   posterior branches one on either side of the body of the mandible  
🗑
condylar processes of the mandible bone   rounded processes on rami that articulate with temporal bone at teh mandibular fossa to form the TMJ  
🗑
temporal process of the zygomatic bone   projects posteriorly-the temporal process of the zygomatic bone and the zygomatic process of the temporal bone together make the zygomatic arch  
🗑
