Solution

The correct option is A If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Skull is the anterior-most axial skeleton. In Man, the skull remains at the top of the vertebral column because of perfectly erect posture. The body is divided into the large and hollow cranium, facial region together protection support useful organ for vision, taste or smell hearing and equilibrium.
Dicondylic skulls are those that have 2 occipital condyles and articulate at 2 positions with the vertebra.
