* '''clefting''' - the way in which the upper jaw forms from fusion of the smaller upper prominence of the first pharyngeal arch leads to a common congenital defect in this region called "clefting", which may involve either the upper lip, the palate or both structures, see {{palate}} and {{head abnormalities}}. | * '''clefting''' - the way in which the upper jaw forms from fusion of the smaller upper prominence of the first pharyngeal arch leads to a common congenital defect in this region called "clefting", which may involve either the upper lip, the palate or both structures, see {{palate}} and {{head abnormalities}}. | ||
* '''coronal suture''' - {{skull}} term for the fibrous connective tissue {{joint}} that connects the frontal bone with the parietal bones. | |||

* [[Embryology_Historic_Terminology#Meckel.27s_cartilage|'''Meckel's cartilage''']] - (pharyngeal arch 1 cartilage) The mandible forms by {{intramembranous ossification}} beside this transient cartilage. The {{middle ear}} {{malleus}} and {{incus}} are thought to form from the ends of this cartilage. | * [[Embryology_Historic_Terminology#Meckel.27s_cartilage|'''Meckel's cartilage''']] - (pharyngeal arch 1 cartilage) The mandible forms by {{intramembranous ossification}} beside this transient cartilage.
