Q

How would you decribe the texture or characteristics of Galea Aponeurotica which is inserted by the frontalis anteriolry and occipitalis to for occipitofrontalis?

A

It is tendinous

66
Q

Give the path of Facial Nerve CN VII to Plexus ganglia

A

CN VII

inner acoustic meatus

innervates the stapezius

leaves the cranium via Stylomastoid foraman

goes through the perotid gland

then shread as plexus ganglia

67
Q

How is the Platysma oriented?

A

it is very superficial

68
Q

What is the primary and secondary use for Platysma? and why?

A

primarily is used to fight against gravity

secondarly is used for opening mouth very wide

69
Q

A

Frown face

70
Q

What sort of facial expression is expressed with mentalis?

A

sad face

71
Q

What two muscles are involved in smiling?

A

Levator Labii superioris

Levator anguli oris

72
Q

How is the Buccinator oriented? aka what two structures is it deep to?

A

located behind Masseter then deep to that is a buccal fat pad

73
Q

Tell us about the buccal fat pad in infants and in adults

A

In infats it is much bigger to assist with suckling for milk and it decreases and muscle become bigger in adults

74
Q

What innervates the Levator Palebrae?

A

occulomotor CN III

75

A

Straight: Posterior Auricular

Via Parotid gland: Tempora, Zygomatic, Buccal, Marginal Mandibular, and Cervical

77
Q
