  • Number of cranial bones and examples

    There are 8 cranial bones including the frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
  • Key features of the temporal bone

    Includes the zygomatic process, mandibular fossa, mastoid process, and external acoustic meatus.
  • Function of the foramen magnum

    A large opening in the occipital bone allowing passage of the spinal cord.
  • Sella turcica location and significance

    A saddle-shaped depression in the sphenoid bone that houses the pituitary gland.
  • Three important features of the ethmoid bone

    Crista galli, cribriform plate, and perpendicular plate.
  • Number of facial bones and examples

    There are 14 facial bones including nasal, lacrimal, inferior nasal conchae, vomer, maxilla, palatine, mandible, zygomatic, and hyoid bones.
  • Alveolar process location

    The ridge on the maxilla and mandible that contains the tooth sockets.
  • Key processes of the mandible

    Mandibular condyle, coronoid process, and mental foramina.
  • Components of the sternum

    Manubrium, body, and xiphoid process.
  • Types of ribs and their classification

    Vertebrosternal ribs (1-7), vertebrocostal ribs (8-10), and vertebral ribs (11-12).
  • Five main parts of a vertebra

    Body, vertebral foramen, spinous process, transverse process, and vertebral arch.
  • Number of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae

    Cervical (7), thoracic (12), lumbar (5).
  • Four major sutures of the skull

    Coronal, sagittal, lambdoid, and squamous sutures.
  • Four fontanels of the infant skull

    Frontal, posterior, sphenoidal, and mastoid fontanels.
  • Bones of the pectoral girdle

    Clavicle and scapula.
  • Key features of the scapula

    Spine, acromion, coracoid process, glenoid cavity, supraspinous fossa, infraspinous fossa, and subscapular fossa.
  • Important landmarks on the humerus

    Head, greater tubercle, intertubercular groove, deltoid tuberosity, capitulum, trochlea, medial epicondyle, and olecranon fossa.
  • Distinguishing features of the ulna

    Olecranon process, trochlear (semilunar) notch, radial notch, and styloid process.
  • Number of carpal, metacarpal, and phalangeal bones in the hand

    Carpal bones (16 total), metacarpals (10 total), and phalanges (28 total).
  • Three bones forming the os coxae

    Ilium, ischium, and pubis.
  • Two prominent features formed at the junction of os coxae bones

    Acetabulum (hip socket) and obturator foramen.
  • Key features of the ilium

    Iliac crest, anterior superior iliac spine, and greater sciatic notch.
  • Important features of the ischium

    Ischial tuberosity.
  • Features of the pubis

    Pubic symphysis.
  • Main bones of the lower extremity

    Femur, patella, tibia, fibula, tarsal bones, metatarsals, and phalanges.
  • Key landmarks on the femur

    Head, fovea capitis, neck, greater trochanter, linea aspera, medial condyle, and lateral condyle.
  • Important features of the tibia

    Medial condyle, lateral condyle, tibial tuberosity, anterior crest, and medial malleolus.
  • Distinguishing features of the fibula

    Head and lateral malleolus.
  • Number of tarsal, metatarsal, and phalangeal bones in the foot

    Tarsal bones (14 total), metatarsals (10 total), and phalanges (28 total).
  • Two important tarsal bones

    Calcaneus (heel bone) and talus (ankle bone).
