Explanation

The vomer is a part of the human body, specifically a bone in the skull. It's located in the middle of the face and forms the lower part of the nasal septum, which is the wall that separates the left and right nostrils. This thin, flat bone is responsible for dividing the nasal cavity into two. It's not something you can feel or see from the outside, but it plays a crucial role in the structure of the nose and face.
