The five unique cavities of the head are the cranial cavity, which houses the brain; the nasal cavity, responsible for the sense of smell and air passage; the oral cavity, which contains the mouth and facilitates digestion and speech; the orbital cavities, which hold the eyes; and the paranasal sinuses, which are air-filled spaces that reduce the weight of the skull and contribute to voice resonance.
