The answer is False.

Explanation: The zygomatic bone, also known as the cheekbone, forms joints with the following bones:

  1. Maxilla (upper jaw)
  2. Temporal bone (side of the skull)
  3. Sphenoid bone (base of the skull)
  4. Frontal bone (forehead)

However, it does not form a joint with the mandible (lower jaw). Therefore, the statement that the zygomatic bone forms joints with the maxilla, mandible, and the frontal bones is incorrect.
