Axial Skeleton Lab Part A: The Skull Prelab: A human skull consists of 22 bones that (except for the lower jaw) are firmly interlocked alone sutures. Eight of these immovable bones make up the braincase, or cranium and thirteen more immovable bones and the mandible form the facial skeleton. Purpose: To examine the structure of the human skull and to identify the bones and major features of the skull. Materials: textbook, human skull (articulated), human skull (exploded), colored pencils Procedure:
1. Review the section entitled “Skull” in chapter 7 of “Hole’s” or “skull” in chapter 5 of Marieb.
2. As a review activity, label figures 1-4. Figure 1

53. Examine the cranial bones of the articulated human skull and the exploded
skull. Locate the following bones and features in the lab specimens and, at the same time, palpate as many of these bones and features in your own skull as possible.
Frontal Bone Temporal Bone Parietal Bone Squamosal suture Coronal Suture External auditory meatus Occipital bone Mastoid process Lambdoidal suture Styloid process Foramen magnum Zygomatic process Sphenoid bone Ethmoid bone Sella turcica Cribriform plate Maxilla bone Crista galli Palatine process Zygomatic bone Nasal bone Temporal process Vomer bone Mandible ramus mandibular condyle Mental foramen 4. Use colored pencils to differentiate the bones listed above in figures 1-4. Select
the same color to color the same bone in all figures. This should help you locate various bones that are shown in different views. You can check your work by referring to your text.
5. Complete the conclusion of this lab.
