What is foram's skull?
Foramin's skull refers to several holes, passages or channels in this part of the skeletal system. The term "foramina" is the plural version of "foramen", an anatomical term used for holes that carry or combine different types of arteries, veins and nerves in the body. Those in the skull are no different because they are helpful in storing these organs.
Most of the foramine skulls can be found in the sphenoid bones. It is named for its wedge shape and helps to create orbit, where the eyes and its accompanying parts are located. Here you will find an optical channel, excellent orbital cracks, foramen rotundum, foramen ovale, foramen spinosum and foramen lacerum. The triangle foramen lacerum is particularly remarkable for adapting the internal carotid arteries that give the brain blood.
Other main places for foramine skull include frontal, ethmoid, temporary and rear bones. The front bone, which contains the forehead, has two foramine: supraorbital foramen and foramen cecum, the second one consisting of the ridge of the front bone.The ethmoid bone, which acts as a barrier between the brain and the nasal cavity, has three foramines: foramine cribriform plates, anterior ethmoid foramen and the back ethmoid foramen.
On the sides and back of the skull is a temporary bone that contains inner auditory meat to carry the nerves to certain parts of the ears. It is also located in the back of the skull, in the lower area, there is a occipital bone. This part of the skull has a foramen magnum in which the lower part of the brain stem called Medulla Oblongata is located.
Some foramin skulls are actually more than one type of cranial bone. For example, Maxilla, which has an infraorbital foramen, and sharp foramen and channels, is such a smaller palatiny foramina and inferior orbital cracks, which share with palatine bone and sphenoid bone. Smaller palatine foramina serves as a tunnel of smaller palatine arteries, veins and nerve. Lower orbital crack bears a range of blood vesselsand nerves that include parts of pterygopalatin ganglion, one of the main tissue masses of the head and neck. The palatine bone, which forms the roof of the mouth and separates the oral and nasal cavities, has a larger palatine foramen in addition to the above -mentioned smaller counterpart.
