The jaw bone articulates with the temporal bone at what fossa?
The jaw bone articulates with the temporal bone at the mandibular fossa, also known as the glenoid fossa or the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone. This is where the temporomandibular joint is formed, allowing for movements of the jaw.
Which portion of the temporal bone articulates with the jawbone?
at the mandibular fossa
Mandibular fossa of temporal bone?
The mandibular fossa is a depression on the underside of the temporal bone where the lower jaw (mandible) articulates to form the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This joint allows for jaw movement during activities like chewing and speaking. The mandibular fossa is lined with cartilage and acts as a cushion to reduce friction during jaw movements.
What bones does the maxilla articulate with?
The mandibular condyle articulates with the mandibular fossae of the temporal bone.
What is the name of the fossa that articulates with the humerus?
The fossa that articulates with the humerus is called the glenoid fossa, located on the scapula bone. This fossa forms the shoulder joint, known as the glenohumeral joint, which allows for a wide range of motion of the arm.
What bone bears the mandibular fossa?
Temporal Bone!
What about the mandible is not true It articulates with the skull at the A styloid process B occipital condyle C mandibular fossa D zygomatic arch E medial pterygoid?
The mandible does articulate with the skull at the C mandibular fossa. All the other choices are untrue. In addition, it is FALSE that mandibles are soft and flexible. It IS TRUE that the mandible continues to grow and harden even through old age.
A slight side-shift of the mandible in the mandibular fossa is referred to as?
dislocation
The coronoid process articulates with what depression on the distal end of the humerus?
The depression in the scapula can be either one of four different structures; the supraspinatus fossa, the infraspinatus fossa, the subscapular fossa, or the glenoid fossa. The problem is that none of these articulate with the ulna. The bone you are probably looking for is the humerus, and it articulates with the last one I mentioned, the glenoid fossa.
What is the glenoid fossa of the scapula articulates with?
The glenoid fossa of the scapula articulates with the head of the humerus, forming the shoulder joint. It is a shallow, cup-shaped socket that allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder joint.
What keeps the mandibular condyle from slipping out of its fossa in a posterior direction?
The articular disc of the temporomandibular joint acts as a cushion and helps maintain the mandibular condyle in position within the fossa. Ligaments, muscles, and the shape of the condyle and fossa also contribute to stabilizing the joint and preventing the condyle from slipping posteriorly.
What articulates with the manubrium?
With the clavicals (as well as) The coastal cartilage of the first and second ribs and the body of the sternum.
