(Kokki Sharoo): Skull = the skeleton or the bony framework of the head and face which is made up of 22 bones. It can be divided into cranium which encloses the brain and face (including the lower jaw or mendible). The cranium consists of eight bones. The frontal, parietal (two), occipital and temporal (two) form the vault of the skull (Calvaria) and are made up of two thin layers of compact bone seperated by a layer of spongy bone (diploe). the remaining bones of the cranium the sphenoid and ethmoid form part of its base. The 14 bones that make up the face are the nasal, lacrimals, inferior nasal conchae, maxillae, maxillae, zygomatics and palatines (two of each), the vomer and the mindible. All the bones of the skull except the mendible are connected to each other by immovable joints. The skull contains cavities for the eyes and the nose and a large opening at its base (formen magnum) through which the spinal cord passes. At the time of birth the larger bones at the top of the skull are not rigidly joined but seperated by narrow gaps (fontanelles) that allow the bones to squeeze together when the baby`s head is passing through the birth canal.

It contains fructose[C6H12O6, extremely sweet soluble crystalline hexose that occurs in nectar of flowers, the ripe fruits and honey],which provides the spermatozoa with energy and prostaglandins (milky fatty acids present in many parts of the body) which affect the muscles of the uterus and may therefore assist transport of the spermstozoa. Ovarian fluid = it is ejaculated or given out at the sexual orgasm by woman under ovulation. It contains an ovum surrounded by fluid filled follicle cells in cluster.
