Name the 4 structures located within a pharyngeal arch.
- arch cartilage
- arch cranial nerve
- arch artery
- skeletal muscle
What structure that is found within the pharyngeal arch is NOT developed from the arch itself? What is it developed from?
arch cranial nerve is developed from neuroectoderm and grows in to the arch
What is the largest and most active pharyngeal arch?
first arch

-part of temporal
(builds most of facial bone structure)
What type of cells do the skeletal/cartilage structures that arise from pharyngeal arches arise from?
neural crest cells
What is the aortic arch component of pharyngeal arch 1?
very small arteries that he said not to worry about :)
What is the other name for the second pharyngeal arch?
hyoid arch
What nerve supplies the 2nd arch?
Facial (CN VII)
What muscles arise from the 2nd arch?
(muscles of facial expression)
- stapedius
- stylohyoid
- posterior belly of digastric
What skeletal/cartilage structures arise from the 2nd arch?
- stapes (middle ear)
- styloid process
- lesser horn of hyoid
- upper body of hyoid
What is the aortic arch component of pharyngeal arch 2?
very small arteries that he said not to worry about :)
What nerve supplies the 3rd arch?
glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX)
What is interesting about the 3rd arch?
only arch to develop only 1 muscle!
What muscle arises from the 3rd arch?
stylopharyngeus
What skeletal/cartilage structures arise from the 3rd arch?
- greater horn of the hyoid
- lower part of the body of the hyoid
What is the aortic arch component of pharyngeal arch 3?
right and left common and internal carotid arteries
From what primary germ layer do the aortic arches arise?
mesoderm
What is the nerve supply to the 4th arch?
superior laryngeal branch of the vagus (CN X)

- caricothyroid
- levator veli palatini (soft palate)
- 5 pharyngeal muscles
What skeletal/cartilage structures arise from the 4th arch?
thyroid cartilage
What is the aortic arch component of pharyngeal arch 4?
right: subclavian
left: aortic arch between left subclavian and left common carotid
What is the nerve supply to the 5th arch?
trick question! there is no 5th arch! hehe
What is the nerve supply to the 6th arch?
recurrent laryngeal branch of vagus (CN X)
What muscles arise from the 6th arch?
laryngeal muscles
striated muscles of the esophagus

laryngeal cartilages
What is the aortic arch component of pharyngeal arch 6?
- right and left pulmonary arteries
- ductus arteriosus (from left side)
What are the 3 major actions of the vagus nerve (meaning what are the function of its muscles)?
- vocalization
- swallowing (5 out of 6)
- “Ahh” (all but 1 uvula muscle)
What innervates the 7 muscles of the orbit?
CN III, IV, and VI
