  3. Frontal process of maxilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_process_of_maxilla

    The frontal process of the maxilla is a strong plate, which projects upward, medialward, and backward from the maxilla, forming part of the lateral boundary of the nose. Its lateral surface is smooth, continuous with the anterior surface of the body, and gives attachment to the quadratus labii superioris, the orbicularis oculi, and the medial ...

  4. Maxilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxilla

    The maxilla is a paired bone - the two maxillae unite with each other at the intermaxillary suture. The maxilla consists of: [5] Inferior surface of maxilla. The body of the maxilla: pyramid-shaped; has an orbital, a nasal, an infratemporal, and a facial surface; contains the maxillary sinus. Four processes: the zygomatic process; the frontal ...

  5. Frontal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe

    The frontal lobe is the largest lobe of the brain and makes up about a third of the surface area of each hemisphere. [3] On the lateral surface of each hemisphere, the central sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe. The lateral sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the temporal lobe. The frontal lobe can be divided into a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxillary_sinus

    Left maxilla, medial view. Maxillary sinus entry shown in red. The pyramid-shaped maxillary sinus (or antrum of Highmore) is the largest of the paranasal sinuses, located in the maxilla. It drains into the middle meatus of the nose [1][2] through the semilunar hiatus. It is located to the side of the nasal cavity, and below the orbit.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain

    The brain is the central organ of the human nervous system, and with the spinal cord, comprises the central nervous system. It consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. The brain controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sensory nervous system.

  8. Palatine process of maxilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palatine_process_of_maxilla

    In human anatomy of the mouth, the palatine process of maxilla (palatal process), is a thick, horizontal process of the maxilla. It forms the anterior three quarters of the hard palate, the horizontal plate of the palatine bone making up the rest. It is the most important bone in the midface. It provides structural support for the viscerocranium.

  9. Lobes of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobes_of_the_brain

    The lobes of the brain are the four major identifiable regions of the human cerebral cortex, and they comprise the surface of each hemisphere of the cerebrum. [1] The two hemispheres are roughly symmetrical in structure, and are connected by the corpus callosum. Some sources include the insula and limbic lobe but the limbic lobe incorporates ...
