1. Which nerve passes through the stylomastoid foramen?
2. Which bone contains the crista galli, and what is its primary function?
3. The petrous part of the temporal bone contributes to which cranial fossa?
Describe the major foramina found on the greater wing of the sphenoid bone.
The greater wing contains the foramen rotundum (V2), foramen ovale (V3), and foramen spinosum (middle meningeal vessels and V3 branches).
Ethmoid — function?
Contributes to nasal septum, orbit, skull base.
What passes through the optic canal of the sphenoid bone?
The optic nerve (CN II) and the ophthalmic artery pass through the optic canal between the lesser wings of the sphenoid.
Sphenoid — role?
Connecting cranial vault to facial bones.
Name the three parts of the temporal bone and a key feature or function of each.
The parts are the squama (attaches temporalis muscle, contains TMJ fossa), mastoid portion (mastoid process, mastoid cells, muscle attachments), and petrous portion (houses inner ear structures, contains the internal acoustic meatus, carotid canal, and stylomastoid foramen).
Temporal — function?
Contains structures for hearing and balance.
