What else can I help you with?
What part of the skeleton is the eye held in?
The skull contains what we call the eye socket or orbit. There are seven bones that articulate to form the orbit: frontal bone, lacrimal bone, ethmoid bone, zygomatic bone, maxillary bone, palatine bone and the sphenoid bone.
What is the most medial bone of the orbit?
The most medial bone of the orbit is the ethmoid bone, specifically the ethmoidal labyrinth. This bone forms part of the medial wall of the orbit and helps separate the orbit from the nasal cavity.
Common name of orbit bone?
The common name of the orbit bone is the eye socket. It is a bony cavity in the skull that contains the eye and its associated muscles and nerves.
What is a lacrimal?
The Lacrimal gland is located in the lateral part of the orbit.
What bone is found just posterior to the ethmoid bone of the orbit?
the sphenoid bone
What bone is found just posterior to the ethmoid in the orbit?
the sphenoid bone
Where in the eye is the orbital bone located?
the eye lies in the orbital cavity, a fossa made up of many bones of the skull! there is no orbital bone in the eye.
What is a orbit in the axial skeleton?
An orbit in the axial skeleton is a bony cavity in the skull that houses and protects the eye. It is formed by the maxilla, zygomatic bone, frontal bone, sphenoid bone, lacrimal bone, ethmoid bone, and palatine bone. The orbit also contains various structures such as muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and fat tissue to support and protect the eye.
What is the scalelike part in the medial wall of orbit?
lacrimal bone
What is the bone that makes up most of the posterior surfaces of the orbit?
Sphenoid Bone
Which bones does not occur in the orbit?
maxilla bone Actually, it's the temporal bone.
What bone is the small medial bone of each orbit?
The Lacrimal and Ethmoid bones
