lingual 
facial 
occipital 
posterior auricular 
maxillary 
superficial temporal
24
Q

superior thyroid artery supplies

A

to cricothyroid in association with external laryngeal nerve
supplies to thyroid gland
and a branch which is usperior laryngeal artery which is given to thyrohyoid with internal laryngeal nerve
also gives off branches to sternocleidomastoid branch and cricothyroid branch

25
Q

cervical part of facial artery gives off

A

ascending palatine, tonssilar submental, glandular to submandibular salivary gland and lymph nodes

26

supplies submental triangle and sublingual salivary gland

28
Q

posterior auricular branch of cervical part of facial artery supplies

A

the back of the auricular, skin over mastoid process and the scalp
its stylomastoid branch enters the stylomastoid formamen and supplies the middle ear, mastoid antrum, air cells semiciruclar canal and the facial nerve

29
Q

what is ansa cervicalis and it supplies what

A

its a loop of nerves present in the ant wall of carotid sheath and supplies the infrahyoid muscles

30
Q

ansa cervicalis formation

A

it is formed by a superior and inferior root
superior root- desending branch of hypoglossal nerve, first cervical nerve
inferior root- from 2nd and 3rd cervical spinal nerves

31

A

first cervical nerve through glossopharyngeal
