The Skull The Skull: All bones are joined by sutures Cranium
Facial bones All bones are joined by sutures Immovable, interlocking joints The mandible is the only freely movable joint © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

The Skull: Cranium 8 cranial bones protect the brain 1. Frontal bone
2. Occipital bone 3. Ethmoid bone 4. Sphenoid bone 5–6. Parietal bones (pair) 7–8. Temporal bones (pair) © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

The Skull: Face There are 14 facial bones. All are paired except for the single mandible and vomer. Maxillae Zygomatics Palatines Nasals Lacrimals Inferior nasal conchae Mandible (1) Vomer (1) © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Bone Markings of the Skull
Foramen or Canal: Openings for passage of vessels/nerves Process: bony prominence for muscle attachment Fossa: depression, usually for articulation

Paranasal Sinuses Found in:
Hollow portions of bones surrounding the nasal cavity Found in: Frontal Ethmoid Sphenoid Maxillary Functions :lighten the skull; amplify speech Sinus Infections: infections to the mucosae (mucous membranes) of the sinuses = sinusitis © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

The Hyoid Bone The only bone that does not articulate with another bone; “floating” Functions: movable base for the tongue Attachment site for neck muscles Aids in swallowing and speech © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.
