The head is the body's home for several of our most advanced functions and sensory organs. The head houses the brain, which controls our entire nervous system and enables everything from consciousness, memory, thinking ability and emotions. The brain is protected by the skull bone, which also serves as the attachment point for the facial muscles.
Our sensory organs are also located here, such as the eyes for vision, the ears for hearing and balance, the nose for smell, and the mouth for taste and speech. The face consists of several bones and soft tissues that form the forehead, cheeks, nose and jaws. The oral cavity contains the teeth, tongue and salivary glands, which help with functions such as chewing and swallowing. The scalp protects the surface of the skull and the hair on the head functions as both temperature regulation and protection against the sun and cold.
