chapter 5 Flashcards
the muscle that is critical for dilating the eustachian tube is
tensor veli palatine
Both the frontal and the maxillary bones articulate with the
nasal tissue
all facial muscles insert into which of the following muscles?
orbicularis oris
the bone that houses the hearing mechanism is the
temporal
the muscle that makes up the bulk of the tongue is
genioglossus
turning the tip of the tongue to the right requires contraction of the
right superior longitudinal muscle and right inferior longitudinal muscle
retraction of the tongue requires contraction of which muscles?
posterior fibers, genioglossus &
anterior fibers, genioglossus
most massive mandibular elevator muscle
masseter muscle
styloglossus
elevates and retracts
hypoglossus
depress and retract
genlogossus
depress and protrude
palatoglossus
elevates the velum
the cribriform plate of the sphenoid bone is continuous with
nasal space
which muscle help to tightly conclude the lip
mentalis
which of the following articulators is used to differentiate /m/ from /b/ phonemes?
velum
the largest mobile articulator is/are the
tongue
elevation of the dorsum of the tongue requires which muscle?
palatoglossus
in the source-filter theory of speech production,
the vibrating vocal folds are the source and the oral/nasal cavities provide the filter
Which muscle helps to narrow the tongue?
transverse
The orifice of the Eustachian (auditory) tube is located in the
nasopharynx
The mandibular fossa of the temporal bone articulates with
the condyloid process of the mandible.
Which muscles can either elevate the hyoid or depress the mandible?
Geniohoid & Mylohyoid (A&B)
