perpendicular plate of the ethmoid
– Hyaline cartilage anterior part • Nasal conchae: form lateral
walls– Inferior: separate bones– Middle and superior:
projections of the ethmoid– Increase surface of nasal cavity

7-13
Interior of the Cranial
Cavity
• Cranial cavity: occupied by the brain• (Calvaria (skull cap): upper dome-like
portion of skull)
• Crista galli: prominent ridge in center of anterior fossa. Point of attachment for the dura mater (one of the meninges)
• (Olfactory fossae lateral to crista galli. Olfactory bulb within)– Cribriform plate of the ethmoid forms
floor of olfactory fossae– Olfactory nerves pass through the
foramina of the cribriform plate

skull and vertebral column– Styloid processes: attachment site for
muscles that move the tongue– (Mandibular fossa: site of articulation with
mandibular condyles)– (Medial and later pterygoid plates: parts
of sphenoid bone that surround posterior opening of nasal cavities)

head and trunk– Protects the spinal cord– Allows spinal nerves to
exit the spinal cord– Provides site for
muscle attachment– Permits movement of
head and trunk
• Twenty-six bones in adult; 34 in embryo– 5 fuse to form sacrum– 4 or 5 coccygeal fuse to form
the coccyx• Regions
– Cervical (7 vertebrae)– Thoracic (12 vertebrae)– Lumbar (5 vertebrae)– Sacral bone (1)– Coccygeal bone (1)
11
7-21
Vertebral Column• Four major curvatures in adults
– Cervical: anterior– Thoracic: posterior– Lumbar: anterior– Sacral and coccygeal: posterior
• At birth, column is C shaped– When head is raised, cervical curve
appears– When sitting and walking begin,
lumbar curve develops• Abnormal curvatures
– Lordosis. Exaggeration of lumbar– Kyphosis. Exaggeration of thoracic– Scoliosis. Lateral, often
accompanied by kyphosis
7-22
Intervertebral Disks
• Located between adjacent vertebrae
• Functions– Provide support– Prevent vertebrae rubbing
against each other• Consist of
– Annulus fibrosus: external– Nucleus pulposus: internal and
gelatinous• Becomes compressed with
age and height decreases• With age, more susceptible to
herniation

General Structure of a Vertebra
7-24
Articulations and Spaces Between Vertebrae
• Articular processes have articular facets where vertebrae meet each other
• Spinal nerves exit the vertebral column through intervertebral foramina
13
7-25
Cervical Vertebrae
• Superior seven vertebrae• Have very small bodies, tend to have
bifid spinous processes, and have transverse foramina
• Atlas: first cervical vertebra– Articulates with skull and allows
“yes” movement– No body and no spinous process
• Axis: second cervical vertebra– Dens or odontoid process extends
superiorly into the vertebral foramen of the atlas
– Allows rotation of the atlas on the axis, the “no” movement
• Vertebral prominence: most prominent spinous process in area. Usually 7th cervical
• Superior articular facets face superiorly; inferior facets face inferiorly
7-26
Thoracic Vertebrae• Long, thin spinous
processes directed inferiorly
• Long transverse processes• Articular facets on
transverse processes for ribs (first 10 thoracic vertebrae)
• Facets on body for articulation with ribs
• Most ribs have heads that articulate with two sequential vertebrae
14
7-27
Lumbar Vertebrae
• Large thick bodies• Heavy rectangular
transverse and spinous processes
• Superior articular facets face medially; inferior articular facets face laterally– Adds strength– Limits rotation
7-28

22
7-43
Arches of the Foot
• Function– Distribute weight of body
between heel and ball of foot: weight transferred from the tibia and fibula to the talus. From there, the weight is distributed first to the calcaneus then through the arch system along the lateral side of the foot to the ball (head of the metatarsals). Footprint in wet sand: only heel, lateral margin, ball, and toes of foot imprinted.
• Three major arches– Transverse arch– Longitudinal arches: Medial
and lateral
