A

SCM

22
Q

What two muscles the the Accessory Nerve innervate?

A

SCM and Trapezius

23

The Ansa Cervicalis is anterior to:

A

Internal jugular vein (Lying on top of internal jugular vein)

24
Q

Superior root of Ansa cervicalis is:

A

Superior root = C1 ( Thyrohyoid, geniohyoid)

25
Q

Inferior root of Ansa Cervicalis is:

A

C2 and C3: Innervates Strap Muscles (Sternohyoid, Sternothyroid, Omohyoid, thyrohyoid)

26
Q

Stylohyoid muscle parallels the:

A

Posterior digastric, and lies anterior

27
Q

What wraps around the digastric tendon and inserts into the hyoid?

A

Stylohyoid muscle

28
Q

The submandibular gland has two parts, Superficial and deep. Which part is above the Mylohyoid?

A

Deep

29
Q

The Hypoglossal N. XII can be found in which triangle?

A

The Carotid triangle. Turns and goes under posterior digastric and lies on top of hyoglossus. Then goes under mylohyoid

A

Behind the SCM

39
Q

Transverse cervical C2 C3 (Part of sensory to cervical plexus) crosses:

A

The SCM; provides sensory skin over anterior triangle

40
Q

Supraclavicular C3, C4 (Part of sensory to cervical plexus) supplies:
