Anatomy Exam 2 Ch 10-14 Flashcards
Functions of TMJ Muscles
- Axial – Functions of TMJ Muscles
a. Masseter - chewing
b. Temporalis – moving the lower jaw back and forth
c. Lateral Pterygoid – Opens Jaw
d. Medial Pterygoid – Closes Jaw
Function of the Facial Muscles
a. Frontalis
- Frontal belly - raises eyebrow
- Occipital belly - tenses and retracts scalp
b. Orbicularis Oculi - Closes Eyes
c. Orbicularis Oris - Compresses, purses lips
d. Calcaneal tendon. - The tendon on back of foot that you can palpate.
3. K
Superficial Boney Landmarks
a. Thyroid cartilage -
b. Cricoid cartilage - Small bony-like prominence below the Thyroid cartilage
c. Location of brachial plexus -levels for a plexus (network) of nerves
d. Acromiom - Lateral end of scapula. where clavicle ends.
e. Medial epicondyle - Inner elbow
f. Linea alba - Separates the abs in the medial line
g. Iliac crest
h. C7 - The most prominent spinous process (Bottom of neck)
i. Gluteal injection site (Gluteus medius is muscle in area) - Between top of crack and lateral side of buttocks.
Structures in Anterior Cervical Triangle
- Palpitation of submandibular gland and lymph node
- Carotid Palpitation
- Hyoid bone
- Thyroid cartilage
- Jugular notch
Structures in Posterior Cervical Triangle
- Location of Brachial Plexus
- Clavicle
- Acromium
Anatomical Position of forearms
Radial – Lateral side
Ulnar – Medial Side
Palpating Arteries
- Brachial Artery - elbow
- Radial Artery – thumb
Lower Extremities - Popliteal Fossa - behind the knee
- Dorsalis Pedis - on top of foot
- Radial artery - on lateral side
- Effectors or Effector Organ
- Cell/Organ/Muscle that responds to stimuli and brings about a change
- Skeletal Muscles – Skeletal Muscle Fibers
- Visceral Effectors - Smooth Muscle, Cardiac Muscle, Glands, Adipose Tissue
- Ie: Muscle contracts to move arm, muscle squeeze salivary
Glial Cells
- PNS
- Schwanns – forms myelin sheathes
- Satellite Cells – support cell bodies
- CNS
- Oligodendrocytes – forms myelin sheaths
- Astrocytes – forms blood brain barrier
o Supplies neurons with nutrient/removes waste
o Substrates for ATP
o Maintains homeostasis in ECF (water and K+) - Microglia – eats, immune cell
- Ependymal – Plasma goes through ependymal
o Tweaks plasma to become CSF
o Cilia to move
Where is Action Potential Generated?

Intereoceptors vs. Exteroceptors
- Interoceptors – Monitor internal organ activity
Ie: muscle spindle prevents overstretching - Exteroceptors – Provide info about the external environment
Ie: Touch (hot stove), pressure, sound waves, smell
- Proprioceptors
Monitor position and movement
Balance muscles that govern movement to smooth movement
- Preganglionic
before ganglion
Preganglionic and pre-synaptic are synonymous but preganglionic specifically refers to if there is a ganglion is present.
- Postganglionic
after ganglion
Nuclei vs. Ganglia
- Nuclei – CNS group of cell bodies
- Ganglion – PNS group of cell bodies
