Unfortunately, this also had the side-effect of causing ____________. deafness in the adjacent ear impaired head and neck movements difficulties in maintaining body balance swallowing problems

Impaired head and neck movements This region of the temporal bone is the origin for the sternocleidomastoid muscle, which, unilaterally, draws the head toward the ipsilateral shoulder and rotates head to the opposite side and, bilaterally, flexes the neck.

Individual vertebrae articulate with each other forming the vertebral column. Identify the part of a vertebra that articulates immediately with the vertebra below it. Transverse processes Spinous process Inferior articular processes Superior articular processes

Inferior articular processes Correct. The inferior articular processes contact the superior articular process of the vertebra below it, forming a moveable synovial joint.

Which of the following structures would not be found within a vertebral foramen? Spinal cord Intervertebral discs Dura mater Spinal nerve roots

Intervertebral discs The intervertebral discs are located in between the vertebral bodies. They form a symphysis with the bodies and act as a shock absorber.

Which landmark of the hip bone can be felt on a hard chair? Pubic rami Ischial body Iliac crest Ischial tuberosity

Ischial tuberosity Correct. The ischial tuberosity is the thickened inferior surface of the ischium. When we sit our weight is distributed to the chair through the ischial tuberosities.

Identify the landmark found on the diaphysis of the femur. Fovea capitis Linea aspera Greater trochanter Deltoid tuberosity

Linea aspera The linea aspera is an elevated ridge found on the diaphysis of the femur. It serves as a site of muscle attachment.

Which of the following landmarks can be found on both the tibia and fibula? Malleoli Tuberosity Condyles Head

Malleoli Both the tibia and the fibula have malleoli, which form the palpable bumps found on the inside and outside of the ankle.

A cleft palate arises when the right and left _____________ bones fail to fuse medially during fetal development. maxillae mandibles inferior nasal conchae middle nasal conchae

Maxillae The palatine processes of the maxillae form the anterior two-thirds of the hard palate.
