The occipital bone is the only bone of the skull that articulates with the vertebral column, connecting the skull to the spine. Its connection occurs at the foramen magnum, allowing the spinal cord to pass through. Other options listed, such as the frontal, parietal, and temporal bones, do not have such a connection.
