🗑
In the newborn infant, bones of the cranium, instead of being tightly joined by sutures, are united by membranes that are gradually converted into bone. these are called   fontanels  
🗑
this fontanel is located where the originally paired frontal bones and the two parietal bones approach each other in the midline, and is easily palpable.   anterior fontanel  
🗑
this fontanel is between the two parietal bones and the occipital bone, also palpable, but for a much shorter period of time because it closes earlier than the anterior   Posterior fontanel  
🗑
two fontanels on each lateral aspect of the skull at the juncture of the parietal, frontal, sphenoid and temporal bones   anterolateral (sphenoidal) fontanel  
🗑
fontanel that is located where the temporal, occipital and parietal bones meet   Posterolateral (mastoid) fontanel  
🗑
Facial muscles are different from other muscles because instead of moving one bone upon another, they move and are attached to primarily what   skin  
🗑
mimetic muscles is another name for what   facial muscles  
🗑
what is the name of the muscle group in the face that consists of only one muscle   platysma  
🗑
the actions of the depressor anguli oris and the depressor labii inferioris is to   which pull the corners of the mouth and the lower lip downward  
🗑
Risorius and two zygomatic muscles do what actions   pull the corners of the mouth laterally, and laterally and upward.  
🗑
Levator labii superioris and levator anguli oris do what actions   elevate the upper lip and corner of the mouth  
🗑
to pucker lips you use what muscle   Orbicularis oris  
🗑
Buccinator muscle forms the muscular part of the face   cheek  
🗑
By its contraction this muscle prevents food from collecting in the space between the cheeks and the teeth and is used in such actions as swallowing and blowing wind instruments   buccinator  
🗑
Muscles connected with the nose are primarily compressors, depressors or   dilators  
🗑
a broad muscle that surrounds the orbit and extends into both upper and lower lids is responsible for closing the lids.   Orbicularis oculi  
🗑
