A manual of examinations : upon anatomy, physiology, surgery, practice of medicine, chemistry, obstetrics, materia medica, pharmacy and therapeutics, especially designed for students of medicine, to which is added a medical formulary . is irregular in shape, andresembles in a slight degree a ploughshare. What is its consistence? — That of two lamella with a diploicstructure between them. What is its foetal state ? — In a foetus of nine months its lamellaeare separated by cartilage. What are its connexions ? — It is connected by its anterior edge tothe cartilage of the septum; to the spinous processes of the maxillaryand palate bones: by its upper edge to the nassal lamellae of thesethmoid, and processus azygos of the sphenoid bone. What are its uses ? — Its chiefuses are to divide the nares, and Fig- 21. permit the expansion of the olfactorynerves. OS MAXILLARE INFERIUS. What is the situation of the osmaxillare inferius? (Fig. 21.) — Itis placed at the lower part of theface. What are its general divisions ?—It is divided into the chin, limitedby the two anterior foramina f thesides extending backward from the foramina; the angles in which thesides terminate f and the rami which ascend from the angles.^5*. 54 ANATOMY. Wliat are its elevations?—They are the condyloid processes, whichis the posterior of the two arising from each ramus;° the coronoid pro-cesses, which are the anterior ones; a protuberance on the outer, andanother on the inner side of each angle; a ridge passing externally,and another internally, from the base of the coronoid processes to thecommencement of the chin; a protuberance immediately behind theBymphysis of the jaw; and another on each side of the base of thechin. What is attached to its coronoid processes ?—The temporal muscles. What is attached to the outer sides of its angles ? — The massetermuscles. What is attached to the inner sides of its angles ? — The internalpterygoid muscles. What is attached to the line® which p
