Question
This image features an anatomical diagram from a textbook, focusing on the inferior view of a human skull, showing various foramina and anatomical features. ### Diagram Explanation: **Anatomical Parts Labeled:** 1. **Foramen Magnum**: This is the large opening in the base of the skull through which the spinal cord passes to connect with the brain. 2. **Foramen Ovale**: An opening in the sphenoid bone of the skull through which several nerves pass. 3. **Foramen Spinosum**: Allows passage of the middle meningeal artery, which supplies the meninges covering the brain. 4. **Jugular Foramen**: A large foramen in the base of the skull that transmits the jugular vein and several nerves. 5. **Occipital Condyle**: The rounded projections on either side of the foramen magnum that articulate with the atlas vertebra. 6. **Carotid Canal**: A passage in the temporal bone through which the internal carotid artery enters the cranial cavity. 7. **Foramen Lacerum**: A triangular opening at the base of the skull between several cranial bones. ### Copyright Notice: - © 2022 Pearson Education Inc.
