A prefacial commissure forms between the facial and trigeminal foramina, which in turn is separated from the optic fenestra by an antotic pillar. The notochord is obliterated by constriction. The development of the bony cranium begins very early, less than 10 mm in length. Teeth appear first and then the jaw and palate bones to which they attach. Many of the bones of the head skeleton arise either in association with the organs of the sensory canals or with teeth, and it has been assumed that the stimulus for bone formation resided in those structures (Fi^gure 5-8). Observations indicate that some bones arise in relation to canal organs and become tubes enclosing the canals. Other bones arise in a like manner but deeper basal plates develop and spread out away from the.
