Yes, that is correct. The paranasal sinuses are air-filled cavities within the bones of the skull, which help to reduce the weight of the skull and provide resonance for sound during speech.
Sinuses are air-filled cavities located throughout the skull, including the forehead (frontal sinus), between the eyes (ethmoid sinus), cheekbones (maxillary sinus), and behind the nose (sphenoid sinus).
The maxilla is a facial bone that contains a paranasal sinus called the maxillary sinus. This sinus is one of the largest paranasal sinuses and is located within the body of the maxilla bone.
The frontal bone, ethmoid bone, sphenoid bone, and maxillary bone contain paranasal sinuses. These sinuses are air-filled cavities within these bones that help to lighten the skull and produce mucus that helps humidify and filter the air we breathe.
The sinuses lighten the weight of the skull and act as resonance chambers for sound production. They also help to humidify and warm the air we breathe in before it reaches the lungs.
