20
Q

What is the origin and insertion of levator veli palatini

A

petrous part of temporal bone

palatine aponeurosis

21
Q

What are the actions of the levator veli palatini

A

elevate the palate and prevent food from entering into nasopharynx

22
Q

What is the innervation of levator veli palatini

A

vagus (pharyngeal branch)

23
Q

How can levator veli palatini be tested clinically

A

Saying ah and seeing if it deviates

Deviates away from bad side (points toward good side)

24
Q

What is the origin and insertion of musculus uvulae

A

nasal spine of hard palate

CT of uvula

Q

What is the origin and insertion of palatopharyngeus

A

superior palatine aponeurosis

pharyngeal wall

28
Q

What is the action of the palatopharyngeus

A

depress soft palate

elevate pharynx

29
Q

What is the innervation of the palatopharyngeus muscle

A

vagus nerve (pharyngeal branch)

30
Q

What is the origin and insertion of palatoglossus

A

palatine aponeurosis

lateral margin of the tongue

31
Q

What are the actions of palatoglossus

A

elevate the tongue

depress the soft palate

32
Q

What is the innervation of palatoglossus

A

vagus nerve (pharyngeal branch)

33

A

mucosa and glands of the hard palate

40
Q

Where does autonomic innervation to the palate come from

A

PPG-parasymp

Superior cervical ganglion-symp

41
Q

What nerve will supply parasympathetic innervation to the nasal and oral cavity

A

facial nerve

42
Q

What does the nasopalatine artery arise from

A

maxillary artery
