ORBITS
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the circular base of each orbit is composed of | Frontal bone, maxilla, and zygoma |
| each orbit is what shaped | cone, bony walled structure |
| ____forms the floor | maxilla |
| what makes up the posterior orbit | sphenoid and ethmoid |
| ____ bone contributes to the innermost posterior portion of the floor of each orbit | palatine |
| what are the 3 cranial bones | frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid |
| what are the 4 facial bones | maxilla, zygoma, lacrimal, palatine |
| is a small hole in the sphenoid bone that is located posteriorly at the apex of the cone-shaped orbits | optic foramen |
| is a cleft or opening between the greater and lesser wings of the sphenoid bone, lateral to the optic foramen | superior orbital fissure |
| controls movement of the eye and eyelid | superior orbital fissure |
| located between the maxilla, zygomatic bone, and greater wing of the sphenoid | inferior orbital fissure |
| allows for transmission of the maxillary branch of the CN, permit entry of sensory innervation for the cheek, nose, upper lip and teeth | inferior orbital fissure |
| small root of bone that separates the superior orbital fissure for the optic canal | sphenoid strut |
| a portion of the medial wall of the orbit is formed by the thin ___ bone | lacrimal |
| the rim of the orbit, which corresponds to the outer circular portion of the cone is called | base |
| the posterior portion of the cone | apex |
| what does the optic nerve pass through | optic foramen |
| the orbitomeatal line adjusted parallel to the floor, each orbit would project superiorly at an angle | 30 degrees |
| the orbitomeatal line adjusted parallel to the floor each orbit would project toward the MSP at an angle | 37 degrees |
| how many bones make up the orbit | 7 |
| _____ of the frontal bone forms most of the roof of the orbit | orbital plate |
| ____ forms much of the lateral wall and some of the floor of the orbit | zygoma |
