14 Facial Bones Maxillae (2 fused) Palatine (2 paired) Zygomatic (2 paired) Lacrimal (2 paired) Nasal (2 paired) Vomer Inferior Nasal Conchae (2 paired) Mandible

Ear Bones

External Auditory Meatus The human ear canal is divided into two parts. The cartilaginous part forms the outer third of the canal and framework of pinna. The Bony part forms the inner two thirds.

Tympanic Membrane Converts mechanical energy to impulses Transmits impulses to the brain

Ossicles

The ossicles are, in order from the eardrum to the inner ear (biologically/medically from superficial to deep) malleus, incus, and stapes. Terms that, in Latin, are translated as the hammer, the anvil, and the stirrup. The smallest bones in the body, increase the force of vibrations.

Ossicles The Malleus (hammer) articulates with the incus and is attached to the tympanic membrane (eardrum), from which vibrational energy is passed.eardrum The Incus (anvil) is connected to both the other bones. The Stapes (stirrup) articulates with the Incus and is attached to the membrane of the fenestra ovalis, the elliptical or oval window or opening between the middle ear and the inner ear.fenestra ovalisoval window

Cochlea Balance and Equilibrium

Eustacian Tubes Connects the inner ear to the throat

Rib Cage

Long Bone

Vertebral Column

Vertebrae

Atlas and Axis

Osteocyte, Osteoblasts and Osteoclasts Osteoclast= removes bone Osteoblast= builds bone Osteocyte= mature bone cell, an osteoblast trapped in its matrix

Bone Formation Bones begin as a cartilage model Ossification occurs when osteoblasts deposit bone tissue over the cartilage model Cartilage disintegrates until there is only bone with hyaline cartilage at the articular ends Formation is finished when the epiphyseal plates is replaced by the epiphyseal line.
