Description
Anatomy and physiology
• There are 206 bones in the human body, divided into four categories:
• Long bones (eg, femur)
• Short bones (eg, metacarpals)
• Flat bones (eg, sternum)
• Irregular bones (eg, vertebrae)
• The shape and construction of a specific bone are determined by its function and the forces exerted on it

Anatomy of head and neck
The head is the globular cranial end of the body, which contains brain and special sense organs, viz. eyes for vision, ears for hearing and equilibrium, nose for smell, and tongue for taste. It also provides openings for the respiratory and digestive systems. Structurally and developmentally, the head is divided into two parts: cranium and face.
