At the age of 6 these two equal bones join to form a single bone PARIETAL BONE: The two parietal bones form the roof of the cranial cavity. They are largest TEMPORAL BONES: The two parietal bones present at ear region. Temporal bone consist of EXTERNAL ACOUSTIC MEATUS(ear opening). OCCIPETAL BONE: It forms base and back of the cranium. There is large aparture present in it called foramen magnum( Through...
