Skull morphology refers to the study of the shape and structure of skulls in various species. It examines features such as size, bone structure, and the arrangement of facial and cranial bones. This field is important for understanding evolutionary relationships, as different species exhibit distinct skull characteristics that reflect their adaptations and lifestyles. Researchers often analyze skull morphology to identify species, understand developmental processes, and explore the impact of environmental factors on skull shape. Techniques such as CT scanning and 3D modeling are commonly used to create detailed representations of skulls, aiding in comparative studies across different taxa, including humans and primates.
