Your third lab quiz will be on the axial skeleton. Expect 10 skull questions and 10 questions for the rest. For the skull, you need to know the bone names and the bone landmarks. Look at the 360 models to be comfortable with all angles of the skull. I may have 100 pictures on my hard drive to choose from (not to mention a skull to take pictures of.)

Below is the lateral view of the facial bones. Identify the facial bones and their landmarks. When done be sure to do the lateral view of the facial bones and anterior view of the facial bones. There is a separate activity for cranial bones.
