What do the parietal bones form?

  1. The base of the skull

  2. The top and sides of the cranium

  3. The facial structure

  4. The lower jaw

The correct answer is: The top and sides of the cranium

The parietal bones form the top and sides of the cranium, also known as the skullcap. Option A is incorrect because the base of the skull is made up of the occipital, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones. Option C is incorrect because the facial structure is primarily formed by the maxilla and mandible bones. Option D is incorrect because the lower jaw is formed by the mandible bone. Therefore, the correct and most specific answer is B.
