Anatomy and Physiology I
Practical Exam II – Bone & Bone Markings
For the next practical exam, you will be asked to identify bones and bone surface markings. Page
references are from the 7th edition of the textbook. The practical exam will consist of fifty questions.
The following surface markings will be covered:
Cranial Bones (pgs 126 - 128):
Temporal bone (2 ) – External auditory meatus
Mastoid process Mandibular fossa
Occipital bone (1) – Foramen magnum
Occipital condyles
Ethmoid bone (1) – Cribiform plates
Crista galli
Olfactory foramina
Sphenoid bone (1) – Optic foramen
Hypophyseal fossa
Foramen ovale
Parietal bones (2)
Frontal bone (1) – Coronal Suture Squamosal Suture Lambdoidal suture Sagittal suture
