Answer:

The left column contains structures of the bones that belong to the right column.

a) styloid process - 3) temporal bone

b) infraorbital foramen - 5) maxilla

c) sella turcica - 2) sphenoid bone

d) foramen magnum - 6) occipital bone

e) coronoid process - 4) mandible

f) Crista galli - 1) ethmoid bone

Step-by-step explanation:

The inferior part of the petrous temporal bone forms the styloid process that allows the stylohyoid, stylopharyngeus, and styloglossus muscles to attach with styloid ligaments.

The infraorbital foramen is the opening of the maxillary bone of the skull

sella turcica is a saddle-like structure in the body of the sphenoid bone of the skull.

The foramen magnum is the lower part of the cranial foss that allows the connecting brain and spinal cord and it the opening

The coronoid process is shoulder joint as well and required mandibles in the skull to form.

Crista galli arises from ethmoid bone that is thick and midline triangular but smooth process.
