Picture the index of a gross anatomy textbook and the long columns of named structures it lists above the neck. Any named anatomical structure, region, surface feature or tissue of the head counts, while whole-body organs, functions, injuries, illnesses and actions fall outside.

How to approach it

Treat the question as an open invitation to a dissection rather than a request for one obvious feature. Work through the region systematically: the outer covering, the bony framework, the muscles that move it, the spaces and cavities inside, the lining membranes, and the vessels and nerves threading through all of it. Then push one level finer, because the scoring rewards precision: a long formal name for a small named feature will beat a plain everyday word almost every time. Build a mental running order before you commit, and keep each guess distinct so you are exploring new territory instead of circling the same structure under a different label.

Get a hint

Begin with the whole region: what someone would point to when describing the general outline and volume of the area above the neck.

A little more

Move one layer inward and think about what a dissection would expose, from the outer covering through the supporting framework to the delicate contents it shelters.

One step further

Now get specific: tiny named features such as grooves, ridges, canals, thin membranes and short nerve branches all sit inside this region and each one is a valid entry.

Why these answers count

The numbers here are unusually generous and they tell you most of what you need to know. Of 2006 recorded answers, 1971 reached the 60-point threshold, and 1852 of those sat at exactly 85, so the puzzle accepts an enormous slice of anatomical vocabulary and hands out a strong score for almost any properly named structure. Only a handful of entries dropped below 60, which means vague or colloquial wording is the real risk, not obscurity. The single 100-point answer, Habenula, is a tiny and rarely discussed structure, which shows that the ceiling is reserved for genuinely deep cuts. Everything around it is solid mid-tier material: Abducens nerve at 85, Agger nasi at 85, Aditus ad antrum at 85. Rarer, more technical picks earn more because fewer players reach for them, while the common words everyone thinks of first tend to settle at the lower band.
