    function: elevates the tongue and depresses the soft palate
148

149
Q

tensor veli palatini

palatal tensor

A

function: stabilizes and flattens soft palate

150
Q

A
  1. superior pharyngeal constrictor
  2. middle pharyngeal constrictor
  3. inferior pharyngeal constrictor
  4. sapingopharyngeus
  5. stylopharyngeus
151
Q

superior pharyngeal constrictor

muscles of the pharynx

A

function: pulls posterior pharyngeal wall forward
constricts pharyngeal diameter to aid in deglutition
-assists in velopharyngeal closure

152
Q

middle pharyngeal constrictor

muscles of the pharynx

A

function: narrows diameter of pharynx

- peristaltic movements for swallowing

153
Q

inferior pharyngeal constrictor

muscles of the pharynx

A

thyropharyngeus muscle

cricopharyngeal muscle

154
Q
thyropharyngeus muscle
(inferior pharyngeal constrictor)
A

function: reduces diameter of lower pharynx

155
Q
cricopharyngeal muscle
(inferior pharyngeal constrictor)
A

function: muscular opening of the esophagus

156
Q

salpingopharyngeus

muscles of the pharynx

A

function: elevates the lateral pharyngeal wall

157
Q

stylopharyngeus

muscles of the pharynx

A

function: elevates and opens the pharynx during deglutition

158
Q

source filter theory of vowel production

A

speech is the product of sending and acoustic source such as the sound produced by the vibrating vocal folds, through filter of the vocal tract which shapes the output

159
Q

motor skills development

articulation

A

cephalocaudually

proximodistally

160
Q

cephalocaudually

motor skills development

A

head to tail

161
Q

proximodistally

motor skills development

A

medial structures to distal structures

162
Q

stabilization

motor control

A

speech is a fine motor skills that requires good stabilization of the trunk and neck muscle

163
Q

resonation

A
  • the sound quality given to voiced sounds by the vocal tract
  • vocal tract is an acoustic resonator
164
Q

characteristic of the vocal tract resonator

A
  • tube that is closed at one end (glottis) and open at the other (lips, nasal passageway)
  • series of air filled containers that are connected to each other
  • irregular shape makes it possible to transmit a wide range of resonating sounds
  • variable resonator whose frequency response changes depending on it shape
165
Q

to change the resonant frequencies of the vocal tract

A
  • length
  • location of constriction
  • degree of constriction
166
Q

velopharyngeal dysfunction

A
  • weakness or impairment of velar function

- velum must be elevated for all english sounds except /m/. /n/, /ing/

167
Q

resonance problems

A

hypernasality

nasal emission
cul-de-sac resonance

168
Q

hypernasality

resonance problems

A

excessive nasal resonance

169
Q

hypo nasality

resonance problems

A

insufficient nasal resonance

170
Q

nasal emission

resonance problems

A

air escape through the nasal cavities

171
Q

cul de sac resonance

resonance problems

A

muffles sound to voice

172
Q

cleft palate

A
  • hold gap in the hard and soft palate
  • difficulties w/ feeding in infancy
  • high risk for frequent ear infections
  • surgery is required to repair the cleft
  • may need orthodontic care
  • may have speech difficulties
173
Q

complete cleft of the palate

A
  • starts at the inclusive foramen
  • follows along the intermaxillary suture of the palatine processes of the maxilla
  • continues between the horizontal plates of the palatine bones
  • goes through the soft palate
174
Q

partial cleft of the palate

A
  • starts at a a point posterior to the incisive foramen

- may include a cleft through the part of the hard palate and soft palate
