The image shows an anatomical model displaying a mid-sagittal view of the head and brain, with the nose and front of the head to the left of the image and the spine and back of the head to the right. The mandible is the largest bone of the face, forming the jaw and the origin of the lower teeth. It articulates with the temporal bone of the skull at the temporomandibular joint and consists of a horizontal body and two vertical rami. However, the blue arrow points to the hyoid bone, a U-shaped bone found in the anterior aspect of the neck inferior to the mandible.

The image shows an anatomical model displaying a mid-sagittal view of the head and brain, with the nose and front of the head to the left of the image and the spine and back of the head to the right. The blue arrow points to the hyoid bone, a U-shaped bone found in the anterior aspect of the neck inferior to the mandible. This bone does not articulate with any other bone in the body and serves as an attachment point for a number of anterior neck muscles.

QuestionChoice
The image shows an anatomical model displaying a mid-sagittal view of the head and brain, with the nose and front of the head to the left of the image and the spine and back of the head to the right. The cricoid cartilage is a ring-shaped hyaline cartilage at the top of the trachea, but inferior to the thyroid cartilage, forming the inferior border of the larynx at the level of the C6 vertebra. However, the blue arrow points to the hyoid bone, a U-shaped bone found in the anterior aspect of the neck inferior to the mandible.

The image shows an anatomical model displaying a mid-sagittal view of the head and brain, with the nose and front of the head to the left of the image and the spine and back of the head to the right. The epiglottis is a leaf-shaped elastic cartilage found at the superior border of the larynx and attached to the anterior aspect of the thyroid cartilage. It flattens and is displaced posteriorly during swallowing to prevent aspiration of food contents into the larynx and the airway. However, the blue arrow points to the hyoid bone, a U-shaped bone found in the anterior aspect of the neck inferior to the mandible.
