anatomy of the canine skull

Показать описание
The Skull
The skull forms a rigid construction composed of many bones, which are mostly paired. It encompasses and protects the brain and the sensory organs of sight, smell, sound, balance and taste.
It also lodges part of the upper respiratory and alimentary tracts.
Bony projections form attachments for the facial and masticatory musculature.
The individual bones of the skull are firmly united by
sutures (suturae), whereas the lower jaw (mandible) and
the hyoid apparatus (apparatus hyoideus) are attached to the skull by articular joints.
Few bones of the head have their embryological origins in the axial skeleton, the majority are ossified structures of a dennal skeleton. The bones derived from the dermal skeleton develop by membranous ossification and cover the lateral and dorsal aspects of the brain, whereas the bones of the axial skeleton develop by endochondral ossification and form the base of the skull and parts of the facial skull.
