Down: 1) large opening located in the inferior portion of occipital bone through which the medulla oblongata passes.. also vertebral arteries pass through.2) are cavities that communicate, drain or empty into the nasal cavity.3) rounded prominences located at the upper part of the forehead4) are cavities within the sphenoid bone that are lined with a mucous membrane and drain into the nasal cavity.5) 2 oval shaped processes located on either side of foramen magnum. These articulate with the atlas, the 1st cervical vertebrae6) lie on lower part of forehead. Find it above the medial ends of eyebrows.7) located posterior and inferior to the external auditory meatus.12) The petrous portion contains the __________ through which the internal carotid artery passes. The opening also contains the internal and middle ear.14) Where do you find the crista galli and the olfactory foramina?15) a singular bone that forms the forehead, the anterior portion of the roof of the skull and part of the eye orbit or eye socket17) a light spongy bone located in the midline of the anterior part of the floor of the cranium between the orbits. It lies anterior to the sphenoid bone and posterior to the nasal bones. It is the major superior supporting structure of the nasal cavity.18) depression located on the inferior posterior surface of the zygomatic process19) lie medially behind the supercilliary arches and drain or empty into the nasal cavities. Sinuses are cavities within a bone. They make the bones of the skull lighter.22) small smooth elevation which lies between superciliary arches; small bump you can feel between eyebrows, Across: 8) Mandibular fossa of the temporal bone articulates with the condylar process of the mandible forming the ______9) form the greater portion of the sides and roof of the cranial cavity. The sagittal suture is found between these 2 bones.10) projects inferiorly from the inferior surface of the temporal bone.

It helps form part of the floor and sidewalls of the eye socket. Its between the frontal and occipital bone. Called the keystone of cranial floor because it articulates with all other cranial bones.26) located in the floor of the cranial cavity. Its triangular in shape and situated between the sphenoid and occipital bones. It is the hardest part of the temporal bone. Means rock.27) bony ridges that extend laterally from each side of the external occipital protuberance. Serves as point of attachment for occipital frontalis muscle.28) is the thin, vertical, flat portion that forms the anterior and superior part of the temple. This is part of the temporal bone.
