Q

Levator veli palatini m. Clinically the Levator is tested by asking the patient to

A

say “ah” (CN X test)
If the muscle on each side is functioning normally, the palate elevates evenly in the midline.
If one side is not functioning, the palate deviates away from the abnormal side

An epithelial membrane consists of an
epithelial tissue bound to an underlying connective tissue layer.
70
The three types of epithelial membranes are:
1) Cutaneous Membranes 2) Mucous Membranes * 3) Serous Membranes
71
The primary epithelium of the oral cavity is
nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium; has a stratum basale, stratum spinosum, and a stratum superficiale.
72
primary epithelium of the oral cavity -
This is found covering the soft palate, lips, cheeks, inferior surface of tongue, and the floor of the mouth; part of lining mucosa.
73
In certain areas of the oral cavity have a special
keratinized stratified squamous epithelium (i.e., parakaratinized); specifically the hard palate, gingiva (gums) and the dorsum of the tongue; part of masticatory mucosa.
74

98
Striated ducts
striations = infoldings of basal plasma membrane; simple cuboidal to columnar epithelium modifies serous secretion
99
