Name three bones in the skull?

Technically more of the bones of the skull are not fused. There are two major gaps on the top of the skull: the anterior and posterior fontanelle. The are the spaces where the frontal, parietal, and occipital bones are not fused together. On the side of the head there is a sphenoidal fontanelle that indicates the separation between the parietal and sphenoidal bone. There is also a mastoid fontanelle that indicates the separation between the parietal, sphenoid and occipital bones.


Bone that does not articulate with any other bone?

Sesamoid bones are small circular bones that are embedded in a tendon and do not technically articulate with another bone. The biggest sesamoid bone in the body is the patella, also known as the knee cap. Actually its more of a trick question. the only bone that does not come in contact with any other bone in the body is the Hyoid bone. Even though the knee cap and other seasmoid bones don't technically articulate with any other bone they are still within close proximity, most often when this question is asked the answer being looked for is the Hyoid bone.

Which of the facial bones is known as the keystone of the face and why?

The maxilla is the keystone of the face and all other facial bones articulate with them. They form part of the lateral walls and most of the floor of the nasal cavity, part of the floor of the orbital cavities and three fourths of the roof of the mouth, or hard palate. If you break these, your face will collapse.

When searching for human remains which part of the bone most likely to be missing from the skull and why?

The skull is actually made up of many different bones. Usually the small facial (lacrymal, ethmoid, nasal conchas) bones are the first to go because they are so fragile and easily broken. Or the mandible can be lost after the connective tissue has decomposed and there is nothing left attaching it to the rest of the skull.
