CHAPTER 3

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which of the following bony features listed does NOT serve as an opening in bone?

a.

Foramen

b.

Canal

c.

Sulcus

d.

Fissure

ANS: C

Feedback

A

A foramen is a short windowlike opening in bone.

B

A canal is a tubelike opening in bone.

C

A sulcus is a shallow depression or groove on bony surface and NOT an opening in bone.

D

A fissure is a narrow cleftlike opening in bone.

2. Which of the following bones listed is the ONLY movable bone of the skull?

a.

Hyoid bone

b.

Mandible

c.

Palatine

d.

Vomer

ANS: B

Feedback

A

Even though the hyoid bone is movable and has no bony articulations, it is a bone located in the neck and NOT the skull.

B

The mandible is the only skull bone that moves; it moves at the temporomandibular joint. Within this joint, the mandibular condyle moves within the articular fossa of the temporal bone.

C

The palatine bone may be a skull bone, but it does NOT move.

D

The vomer may be a skull bone, but it does NOT move.

3. The squamosal suture is BEST observed from which view of the skull?

a.

Anterior view

b.

Inferior view

c.

Lateral view

d.

Superior view

ANS: C

Feedback

A

It is difficult to see the squamosal suture on the lateral skull surface from an anterior view.

B

It is difficult to see the squamosal suture on the lateral skull surface from an inferior view.

C

The squamosal suture is the suture between the parietal bones and temporal bones on each side of the skull. This suture is BEST viewed from the lateral view.

D

It is difficult to see the squamosal suture on the lateral skull surface from a superior view.

4. Which of the following openings within the orbit connects the orbit with the cranial cavity?

a.

Cribriform plate

b.

Infraorbital foramen

c.

Inferior orbital fissure

d.

Superior orbital fissure

ANS: D

Feedback

A

The cribriform plate is a passageway for olfactory nerves from the nasal cavity to the brain.

B

The infraorbital foramen is located inferior to the orbit on the facial surface of the maxilla.

C

The inferior orbital fissure connects the orbit with both the infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae and NOT the cranial cavity.

D

The superior orbital fissure is a slitlike opening between the lesser and greater wings of the sphenoid bone and serves as a passageway for blood vessels and nerves from the cranial cavity into the orbit, thus connecting the two.

5. After the seventh cranial nerve travels through the petrous part of the temporal bone, through which opening does it exit onto the face?

a.

External auditory meatus

b.

Jugular notch

c.

Foramen spinosum

d.

Stylomastoid foramen

ANS: D

Feedback

A

The external acoustic meatus is the short external canal that leads to the tympanic cavity.

B

The jugular notch, formed by the articulation of temporal and occipital bones, is associated with the jugular vein and the ninth, tenth, and eleventh cranial nerves.

C

The foramen spinosum is more posterior and is associated with the middle meningeal artery.

D

The seventh cranial nerve enters the temporal bone through the internal acoustic meatus, travels within the temporal bone, and exits through the stylomastoid foramen onto the face.
