Which bone forms the forehead and bony sockets which contain the eyes?

  1. Frontal

  2. Parietal

  3. Temporal

  4. Occipital

The correct answer is: Frontal

The frontal bone is responsible for forming the forehead and orbits of the eyes. The parietal bone, located on the top of the head, does not contribute to the formation of the forehead or eye sockets. The temporal bone is located on the sides of the head and does not play a role in forehead or eye socket formation. The occipital bone, located at the back of the skull, does not contribute to the forehead or orbits of the eyes. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
