bone of skull in 3d
The skull is the bony structure that forms the head in vertebrates, providing protection for the brain and sensory organs. In humans, the skull is a complex structure comprised of several bones. Here's a brief description of the major bones of the human skull:
Frontal Bone: This bone forms the forehead and the upper part of the eye sockets (orbits).
Parietal Bones (2): These are two large bones that form the top and sides of the skull.
Temporal Bones (2): These bones are located on each side of the skull and house the ear structures.
Occipital Bone: Situated at the back and base of the skull, it forms the posterior part of the skull and contains the foramen magnum, through which the spinal cord passes.
Sphenoid Bone: This butterfly-shaped bone contributes to the base of the skull and the sides of the eye sockets.
Ethmoid Bone: Located in the front of the skull, it forms part of the eye sockets and the nasal cavity.
These bones are connected by sutures, which are fibrous joints that allow some flexibility during childbirth and early development but fuse as a person grows older.
The skull plays a crucial role in protecting the brain and supporting facial structures, and its various bones have specific functions in housing and safeguarding different parts of the head.
