- 25. two small oblong bones; placed side by side at the middle and upper part of your face, and form, by their auction, "the bridge" of the nose
- 26. a pair of cavities in the body that communicate with the nasal cavity
Down
- 1. situated behind the brow ridges
- 3. a small bone forming part of the eye socket
- 4. extend medially from the lateral masses; act as turbinates to improve airflow through the nasal cavity
- 5. a curved depression on the upper border of the lower jaw
- 6. each of the two bones within the skull forming parts of the eye socket, the nasal cavity, and the hard palate
- 7. an open in the maxillary bone of the skull
- 8. the hinge joint between the temporal bone and the lower jaw
- 9. located on the anterior surface of the mandible; transmits the terminal branches of the inferior alveolar nerve and vessels
- 10. "crown-shaped" portion of the ramus for muscle attachment
- 16. opening on the internal surface of the ramus for divisions of the mandibular nerve and blood vessels to pass through
- 18. known as Rooster's comb; a superior projection that attaches to the dura mater, helping to secure the brain within the skull
