39
Q

What is the pharynx (“throat”)?

A

A funnel-shaped tube that lies posterior to both the oral and nasal cavities.

40
Q

Does the pharynx lie posterior to both the oral and nasal cavities?

A

Yes

41
Q

What muscles are considered the primary pharynx muscles of the pharynx?

A

Pharyngeal Constrictors:

  • superior
  • middle
  • inferior
42
Q

What is the function of the pharynx?

A

Initiate swallowing and force the bolus inferiorly into the esophagus.

Help elevate or tense the palate when swallowing.

this is carried out by the primary pharyngeal constrictor muscles: superior, middle, and inferior

43
Q

What muscles elevate the pharynx and larynx?

A
  • palatopharyngeus m.
  • salpingopharyngeus m.
  • stylopharyngeus m.
44
Q

What is the innervation and action of the palatophayngeus muscle?

A
  • elevates pharynx and larynx

- CN X via branches of pharyngeal plexus

45
Q

What is the innervation and action of the salpingopharyngeus muscle?

A
  • elevates pharynx and larynx

- CN X via branches of pharyngeal plexus

46
Q

What is the innervation and action of the stylopharyngeus muscle?

A
  • elevates pharynx and larynx

- CN IX (glossopharyngeal nerve) via branches of pharyngeal plexus

47
Q

What muscle elevates the soft palate when swallowing?

A

Levator veli palaini

48
Q

What is the innervation and action of the levator veli palatini muscle?

A
  • elevates soft palate when swallowing

- CN X
