SKULL CAP

Skull cap bone

The calvarium, also known as the roof or skull cap, consists of three bones: Frontal bones. Parietal bones. Occipital bones.

MANDIBLE BONE

The mandible is the largest bone in the human skull. It holds the lower teeth in place, it assists in mastication and forms the lower jawline. The mandible is composed of the body and the ramus and is located inferior to the maxilla. The body is a horizontally curved portion that creates the lower jawline.

Calvaria Bones WITH SUTURES

he calvaria is composed of 5 bones: Frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal, and sphenoid (greater wings) bones that are primarily connected by the major sutures, including the coronal, sagittal, and lambdoid sutures. The metopic suture is variably seen in adults. There are many normal variants of the skull.

INTERIOR OF SKULL

The interior space that is almost completely occupied by the brain is called the cranial cavity. This cavity is bounded superiorly by the rounded top of the skull, which is called the calvaria (skullcap), and the lateral and posterior sides of the skull.

HIP BONE

The adult os coxae, or hip bone, is formed by the fusion of the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis, which occurs by the end of the teenage years. The 2 hip bones form the bony pelvis, along with the sacrum and the coccyx, and are united anteriorly by the pubic symphysis. Hip joints, anterior view.

ARTICULATED HEAND

Three of the bones in the proximal row articulate with the radius forming the radiocarpal joint and distally with the distal carpal forming the midcarpal joint. The four carpal bones in the distal row articulate with the bases of the five metacarpal bones forming the carpometacarpal joints.

ARTICULATED FOOT

he foot is the region of the body distal to the leg that is involved in weight bearing and locomotion. It consists of 28 bones, which can be divided functionally into three groups, referred to as the tarsus, metatarsus and phalanges.
