    The facial skeleton consists of 14 stationary bones and a mobile lower jawbone (mandible). These 14 bones form the basic shape of the face, and are responsible for providing attachments for muscles that make the jaw move and control facial expressions.

No, Biology is typically a mandatory subject for admission into BSc Physiotherapy, as the course heavily involves anatomy, physiology, and medical sciences. Most universities require PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) as the core subjects in Class 12.

However, a few colleges may accept students with PCMB or allied Science backgrounds. It's important to review the specific eligibility criteria of the chosen college before applying.
