which muscles open the jaw
lateral pterygoid
what do the lateral pterygoid muscles do and where do they attach

the pons
NB CN V trigeminal is the only cranial nerve to attach to the pons
where does CN V3 pass through in the skull
passes through the sphenoid bone in the foramen ovale
which tonsils are visible when the mouth is open
palatine tonsil
within the oral cavity the superior half of the oral cavity and palate is supplied by what
general sensation is CN V2
the gingivae of oral cavity and floor of the mouth inferiorly is supplied by what
CN V3
the sensory part of the gag reflex is supplies by which nerve fibres
CN IX-glossopharyngeal
the motor part of the gag reflex is supplied by which nerve fibres
CNIX-glossopharyngeal and CN X vagus
what is CN VII also known as
facial nerve
where does the facial nerve CN VII connect to the CNS
junction between the pons and medulla
how does the facial nerve leave the skull
through the temporal bone through the stylomastoid foramen
where does the glossopharyngeal nerve connect to the CNS
medulla
what is the course of the glossopharyngeal nerve
directly towards the jugular foramen in the posterior cranial fossa
what does CN IX leave the skull through and through which bone
junction between the temporal bone and the occipital bone through the jugular foramen
what re the names of the four extrinsic muscles of the tongue
genioglossus
hypoglossus
palatoglossus
styloglossus
where are the four pairs of intrinsic muscles on the tongue located
dorsally and posteriorly
what are the extrinsic muscles of the tongue supplied by
hypoglossus, genioglossus and styloglossus are upplied by CN XII hypoglossal but palatoglossus is supplied by CN X
where does the hypoglossal CNXII attach to the CNS
at the medulla
where does the CNXII leave the skull
through the occipital bone in the hypoglossal canal in anterior wall of the foramen magnum
where does CNXII pass through after it has passed through the skull
descends in neck lateral to carotid sheath
at hyoid bone it passes anteriorly towards the lateral aspect of the tongue
supplies most of the muscles of the tongue
what do the muscles on the posterior of the pharynx all insert onto
the midline raphe
what type of muscles are those on the posterior aspect of the pharynx
circular (constrictor muscles)
they are VOLUNTARY
where are the longitudinal muscles of the pharynx located
on the inner layer
what are the longitudinal muscles of the larynx supplied by
stylopharyngeal is supplied by CNIX all others palatopharygeus and salpingopharygeus are supplied by CNX
in the ENS what does parasympathetic innervation due to the pace of peristalsis
parasympathetic innervation increases the rate of peristalsis
how does sympathetic stimulation affect the rate of peristalsis
it slows down the rate of peristalsis
where is the cricopharygeus muscle
C6
where does the oesophagus terminate
when it enters the cardia of the stomach
is the cricopharygeus a physiological or an anatomical sphincter
anatomical
is the lower oesophageal sphincter a physiological or anatomical sphincter
physiological
which factors produce a sphincter effect at the lower oesophageus sphincter
contraction of the diaphragm
intraabdominal pressure is slightly higher than intragastric pressure
oblique angle at which oesophagus enters the stomach
side effects of hiatus hernia
oesophageal reflux
where is the fundus
the superior aspect of the stomach
in which bone of the skull does the foramen ovale pass through
sphenoid
in which bone of the skull does the stylomastoid foramen pass through
temporal bone
in which region is the stomach usually located
left hypochondrium
what is the ‘indentation’ at the lesser curvature of the stomach called
incisura angularis
what are the infoldings on the stomach called
rugae
what is the small intestine made up of
the duodenum
jejunum
ileum
what is the large intestine made up of
4 main things 6 parts to the colon Colon: caecum appendix ascending colon transverse colon descending colon sigmoid colon Rectum Anal Canal Anus
what are the two ‘turns’ in the colon called
hepatic flexure and splenic flexure
what is contained within the foregut
oesophagus to mid-duodenum
liver, gallbladder, spleen and 1/2 of pancreas
what is contained within the mid-gut
mid-duodenum to proximal 2/3rd of transverse colon
1/2 of pancreas
what is contained within the hindgut
distal 1/3 of the transverse colon to proximal 1/2 of the anal canal
the 9 regions of the abdominal cavity are divided along which planes
mid-clavicular, subcostal and transtubercular
the 4 quadrants are divided along which planes
median and trans-umbilical planes
which muscles make up the ‘6 pack’
rectus abdominis
what do the abdominal muscles do when injury threatens
they contract
is the parietal membrane continuous or discontinuous
continuous
pus, blood or faeces in the peritoneal cavity will cause what
sever and painful inflammation of the peritoneum (peritonitis)
give an example of an intraperitoneal organ
the liver
is the liver mobile or not and why
mimimally mobile because it is enclosed in peritoneum
give example of retroperitoneal organs
pancreas and kidneys
organs with a mesentery examples
parts of intestines
covered in visceral peritoneum
visceral peritoneum wraps behind the organs to form a double layer mesentery
what divides the peritoneal cavity into a greater sac and a lesser sac
omenta
how do the lesser and greater omentum communicate
the omentum foramen
what does the portal triad lie in relation to the omental foramen
the free edge of the lesser omentum
the pouches in the peritoneum are part of which part of the sac
the greater sac
what is another name for the retrouterine pouch
pouch of douglas
how can ascites fluid be drained from the peritoneal cavity
in a procedure called paracentesis
where should the needle be paced in paracentesis
lateral to the rectus sheath
why does the needle have to be lateral to the rectus sheath to remove fluid
to avoid the inferior epigastric artery
