Full Text. The hyoid bone is a horseshoe shaped bone found in the neck. Located anteriorly between the mandible and the thyroid cartilage, the hyoid bone protects the esophagus and also facilitates the wide range of muscle activity required for speaking and swallowing. It is visible upon extension of the neck.
Skeletal cartilages are made from cartilage, surrounded by a layer of dense irregular connective tissue called the perichondrium. Hyaline cartilage is the most abundant skeletal cartilage, and includes the articular, costal, respiratory, and nasal cartilages.piphyses are at the ends of the bone, and consist of internal spongy bone covered by an outer layer of compact bone. The epiphyseal line is located between the epiphyses and diaphysis, and is a remnant of the epiphyseal plate. The external surface of the bone is covered by the periosteum.
