The correct answer is: Skull

The term "crani-" is a prefix derived from the Greek word "kranion," which means "skull." It is commonly used in medical terminology to refer specifically to the skull or cranium, the part of the skeleton that encloses the brain. This prefix can be found in various medical terms such as craniotomy (surgical opening of the skull) and cranial (pertaining to the skull). Understanding this prefix helps in deciphering the meaning of complex medical terms related to the cranial area.
