List #5 Flashcards
1
Q
hyoid bone
A
- Located in the neck between the lower jaw and larynx.
- It doesn’t articulate with any other bones but is fixed in position by muscles and ligaments.
- supports the tongue and is an attachment for certain muscles that help move the tongue during swallowing
2
Q

21
Q
supraorbital and infraorbital foramina
A
- Supra is in the frontal bone and has blood vessels and nerves that pass to the tissues in the forehead.
- Infra is located below the orbit in the maxillary bone. Infraorbital blood vessels and nerves pass through it.
22
Q
occipital condyles
A
- Located on each side of the foramen magnum, it articulates with the first vertebra(atlas).
23
Q
coronoid process of mandible
A
- Provides attachments for muscles used in chewing.
24
Q
mandibular foramen
A
- Location: Near point of jaw in mandible
- Major structures: Mental nerve and blood vessels
25
long bones vs. short bones
- Long bones: longitudinal axes and expanded ends. Humerus and Femur bones.
- Short bones: cube like, with roughly equal lengths and widths. Tarsals and Carpals
26
flat bones vs. irregular bones
- Flat bones: platelike structures with road surfaces, such as ribs, scapula, and some bones in the skull
- Irregular bones: variety of shapes, most are connected to several other bones. Vertebrae that compose the back bone and many facial bones.
27
sesamoid bones
- A special type of short bone. Usually small and nodular and embedded in a tendon adjacent to a joint, where the tendon is compressed. The patella is a sesamoid bone.
28
anterior fontanel
- The connector point between the two parts of the frontal bone and the two parts of the parietal bones
29
posterior fontanel
- The connector point between the two parts of the parietal bones and the occipital
30
mastoid fontanel
- The connector point of the temporal bone, occipital, and parietal.
31
sphenoid fontanel
- The connector point of the frontal, parietal, sphenoid, and temporal bone.
32
sutural(wormian) bones
- extra bones found in sutures
33
coccyx
- the lowest part of the vertebral column and is usually composed of four vertebrae that fuse between the ages of twenty-five and thirty
34
capitulum
- One of the two smooth condyles on the humerus and is on the lateral side
35
trochlea
- One of the two smooth condyles on the humerus it is on the medial side and is shaped like a pulley.
36
acromegaly
- The secretion of excess growth hormone, in which hands, feet, and jaw enlarge.
