Q

Name the supra hyoid muscles

A
  1. digastric (ant and post belly)
  2. stylohyoid
  3. geniohyoid
  4. mylohyoid
  • all depress the mandible and generally elevate the hyoid bone during speaking and swallowing

Also,
mylo –> brings hyoid forward
stylohyoid –> retracts hyoid

16
Q

In the brachial plexus, the anterior divisions of the trunks (superior, middle and inferior) supply what compartments of the upper limb?

A

Anterior (flexor) compartments of the upper limb

17
Q

In the brachial plexus, the posterior divisions of the trunks (superior, middle and inferior) supply what compartments of the upper limb?

A

posterior (extensor) compartments of the upper limb

18
Q

What happens when the ulnar nerve is damaged?

A

weakness in flexing the wrist, little and ring finger with hyperextended metacaarpophalangeal joints

19
Q

What happens when the median nerve is damaged?

A

weakness in flexing the wrist, weakened flexion of the thumb, index, and middle finger

20
Q

What happens when the radial nerve is damaged?

A

weakened ability to extend elbow, wrist and fingers

21
Q

Innervation areas of the vagus nerve

A
  1. pharynx
  2. Larynx
  3. lung
  4. heart
  5. spleen
  6. stomach
  7. liver
  8. kidney
  9. colon
  10. small intestine
22
Q

The cervical sympathetic trunk

A

One of three major nerves found in the root of the neck

  1. located on top of the anterior scalene muscle
  2. provides sympathetic innervation for head, neck and heart
23
Q

The stellate ganglion

A
  1. a.k.a cervicothoracic ganglion
  2. sympathetic
  3. located at the level of C7
  4. provides sympathetic efferents to the upper extremities, head, neck and heart
24
Q

What sections are is the pharynx divided into?

A
  1. nasopharynx
  2. oropharynx
  3. laryngopharynx
25
Q

All the muscles of the larynx close the gap except for one. Which muscle is this?

A

posterior crico-arytenoid

26
Q

What produces sound in our larynx?

A

movement of the cartilages. The vibrations create sound

27
Q

What are the main arterial branches of the thyrocervical trunk?

A
  1. inferior thyroid artery
  2. Transverse cervical artery
  3. suprascapular artery
28
Q

What is the action of the stylohyoid?

A

Elevation and retraction of the hyoid bone; assists in lowering the mandible (opening the mouth)

29
Q

What is the action of the mylohyoid?

A

Elevates and draws the hyoid bone forward; elevates the tongue, depresses the mandible during swallowing and speaking

30
Q

What is the action of the digastric ?

A

depresses mandible; raises hyoid bone and steadies it during swallowing and speaking

31
Q

What is the action of the geniohyoid?

A

depresses the mandible and elevates the hyoid bone

32
Q

What is the action of the sternohyoid?

A

depresses the HYOID bone after swallowing

33
Q

What is the action of the omohyoid?

A

depresses, retracts and fixes (stabilizes) hyoid bone during phonation and swallowing

34
Q

What is the action of the sternothyroid?

A

Depresses LARYNX after swallowing

35
Q

What is the action of the thyrohyoid?

A

depresses hyoid bone and elevates larynx when the hyoid bone is fixed
