Anatomy and physiology : designed for academies and families . h the buccal. 12, The alveolar and posterior dental , The Infra-orbital arterv. 13, The same arterv as it appears on the face, passingthrough the infra-orbital foramen. 14, The deep temporal arteries. 15, The internalmaxillary in its passage, through the pterygo-maxillary fissure.

THE AORTA AND ITS BRANCHES. 203 two vertebral arteries that proceed from the subclavian ar-teries. The passage of the carotids through the thick bonesat the base of the skull, is tortuous, like the letter S. Thevertebral arteries ascend the neck in channels formed in thetransverse processes of the cervical vertebrae, and enter thecavity of the skull at its posterior part, by the side of thespinal cord. The two carotids and two vertebral arteriescommunicate with each other, and ramify through and supplyblood to the brain. Fig. 147. Fig.
