Verified step by step guidance

Understand the anatomy of the nasal septum: The nasal septum is a structure that separates the left and right airways in the nose, dividing the two nostrils.

Identify the bones involved in forming the nasal septum: The nasal septum is primarily composed of the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone and the vomer bone.

Recognize the role of the vomer bone: The vomer is a thin, flat bone that forms the inferior portion of the nasal septum. It is located in the midline of the nasal cavity.

Differentiate the vomer from other bones listed: The palatine, maxilla, and zygomatic bones are not part of the nasal septum. The palatine bone forms part of the hard palate, the maxilla is the upper jaw, and the zygomatic bone is the cheekbone.

Conclude that the vomer is the correct answer: Based on the anatomical structure of the nasal septum, the vomer is the bone that forms part of the nasal septum.
