2. keystone bone of cranium | (b) frontal |
3. form the hard palate | (c)mandible |

(i) temporal |
Solution:
| Description (column A) | Bone (column B) |
| Connected by the coronal suture | Frontal and parietal |
| Keystone bone of cranium | Sphenoid |
| Form the hard palate | Maxillary and palatine |
| Allows the spinal cord to pass | Occipital |
| Forms the chin | Mandible |
| Contain paranasal sinuses | Ethmoid, frontal, maxillary, and sphenoid |
| Contains mastoid sinuses | Temporal |
Explanation of Solution
The parietal bones are curved, large, and rectangular in shape. They form the superior and lateral aspects of the skull. The parietal bones communicate with the coronal suture. The parietal bones and the frontal bone meet anteriorly in the coronary suture.
The sphenoid bone is a prominent, wedge-shaped, and irregular bone located at the base of the skull. It is known as the keystone of the cranial floor. This is so because the sphenoid bone is in contact with the other cranial bones.
The maxilla is known to be the keystone of the facial bones. It is so called because it anchors all the facial bones apart from the mandible. It contains two maxillary bones that are fused together at the midline.
The hard palate is a horizontal, bony plate of the skull. It is thin and located on the roof of the mouth. The hard palate is formed by the maxilla and the palatine bone. The palatine bone is an L-shaped and paired bone that forms a part of the hard palate.
The occipital bone is a trapezoid-shaped bone that is located in the lower back region of the cranium. It consists of seven bones that come together to create the skull. It allows the spinal cord to pass.
The mandible is the largest and the strongest bone of the human face. It is also the lowest bone present in the face of human beings. The mandible forms the lower jaw and holds the teeth in place.
The ethmoid sinus is located in the spongy ethmoid bone in the upper region of the nose between the eyes. The frontal sinuses are present in the frontal bone and form the lower region of the forehead. The maxillary sinus is present in the cheek area next to the nose. The sphenoid sinus is present at the back of the nose between the eyes.
The temporal bones are located at the sides and the base of the skull. They form the inferolateral aspects of the skull and an area of the cranial base. The tympanic part of the temporal bone is present around the ear canal.

- Using quail and chick embryos, quail-specific antibody and fluorescent tissue-specific antibodies, design an experiment where you investigate the tissues the cranial neural crest can give rise to. What are four derivatives of the cranial neural crest that you expect to see in the resulting chimeric embryos?arrow_forwardDoes the neural crest have to undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition prior to migration through the developing embryo? Does the neural crest differentiate into different cell types based on their axial position along the anterior and posterior axis?arrow_forwardUsing quail and chicken embryos, what kind of experiment would you conduct to test if rib forming somites have their axial identity specified before segmentation? How do we know this phenotype is due to axial identity being specified before segmentation and not due to our experimental method?arrow_forward
- 8. Aerobic respiration of a 5 mM solution of tripeptide that is composed of the following three amino acids; alanine, leucine and isoleucine. Alanine breaks down to pyruvate, leucine breaks down to Acetyl-CoA and isoleucine breaks down to succinyl-CoA. Alanine NADH FADH2 OP ATP SLP ATP Total ATP Leucine Isoleucine Totals Show your work using dimensional analysis here: 4arrow_forward9. Aerobic respiration of one lipid molecule. The lipid is composed of one glycerol molecule connected to two fatty acid tails. One fatty acid is 12 carbons long and the other fatty acid is 18 carbons long in the figure below. Use the information below to determine how much ATP will be produced from the glycerol part of the lipid. Then, in part B, determine how much ATP is produced from the 2 fatty acids of the lipid. Finally put the NADH and ATP yields together from the glycerol and fatty acids (part A and B) to determine your total number of ATP produced per lipid. Assume no other carbon source is available. fatty acids glycerol 18 carbons 12 carbons 0=arrow_forwardinfluences of environment on the phenotype.arrow_forward

- You aim to test the hypothesis that the Tbx4 and Tbx5 genes inhibit each other's expression during limb development. With access to chicken embryos and viruses capable of overexpressing Tbx4 and Tbx5, describe an experiment to investigate whether these genes suppress each other's expression in the limb buds. What results would you expect if they do repress each other? What results would you expect if they do not repress each other?arrow_forwardYou decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.arrow_forwardYou implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb? Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.arrow_forward
