10
Q

what is the difference between the membranous nad cartilaginous

A

there is an intermediate stage in cartilaginous stage. membranous: mesenchymal membrane > ossification

during puberty

50

what does the paranasal sinuses contribute to

A

definitive shape of face, lightening the skull, resonance of the voice

51
Q

what else contributes to the shape of the face

A

eruption of permanent teeth

52
Q

what happens when u get sinusitis

A

muffled voice cause air filled with fluid

53

what is craniosynostosis (general)

A

premature closure of the sutures of the skull

54

turricephaly

58

oxycephaly

A

premature closure of the coronal suture (back gets big)

59
