Skeletal System (The skull)

This is a great picture of the Skull. In A&P we specialized in a certain area of the body. I chose the skull. This front part of the skull was the easiest to remember because the words make sense with the bone. Ex: the Nasal Bone is where your nose is and the mental protruberance is the "but crack of your chin".  Also when you try to memorize the skull you can touch your face which helps you remember what is what and where it is.

The lateral side of the skull is a little harder to remember. But the suture's of the skull go in order by word. Ex: Frontal bone (front), Coronal Suture (core/middle), Squamous Suture (small) etc. The Mastoid Process is where your jaw connects to the rest of your head. Just to let you know.

This is the other side of the skull and the have most of the same bone's and suture's.

With all these bones and sutures I was able to understand the skull and label the skull. In A&P there was a contest to label the skull in 4 minutes. Out of all the parts of the skull I labeled 35 parts. I had about 15 left on my sheet of paper that I knew and memorized. The skull is the most complicated part of the body. I am proud to say I know the skull pretty well. Also on the skeletal test I got a 94!!
