MET: Anatomy Practical 1 Flashcards
label 1-3
- oral proper cavity: space inside the teeth (mostly occupied by tongue)
- vestibule: space between cheecks and teeth
- frenelum: attaches to tongue to the floor of the oral cavity
label 1-3
1: posterior belly of digastric muscle
2: mylohyoid muscle (cut)
3: geniohydoid muscle
pharnynx muscles:
- the pharynx consists of which three extrinsic muscles?
- the pharynx consists of which three constrictor muscles?
The pharynx consists of three extrinsic muscles; stylopharyngeus, palatopharyngeus and salpingopharyngues muscles.
the pharynx consists of three constrictor muscles: superior, middle and inferior
- *sublingual** glands:
- location?
- function?
- secrete into?
- duct runs from where / to?
sublingual glands:
- location: floor of the oral cavity: form a shallow groove on the medial surface of the mandible known as the sublingual fossa.
- function: produces a thick mucinous fluid and lubricates the oral cavity
- secrete into: oral cavity. Secretions drain into the oral cavity by minor sublingual ducts, each opening out onto the sublingual folds. Each sublingual fold extends from a posterolateral position and traverses anteriorly to join the sublingual papillae at the midline, either side of the lingual frenulum.
- duct runs from where / to: They open with separate ducts on the sublingual fold (plica sublingualis), a fold of mucous membrane between the tongue and the body of the mandible.
- *parotid glands:**
- location?
- function?
- secrete into?
- duct runs from where / to?
parotid glands:
- location: large salivary glands located in front of each ear
- function: secrete saliva
- secrete into: into oral cavity
- duct: runs from anterior surface of the gland, pierces the buccinator and opens onto oral cavity near second upper molar
You suspect a patients muscles of mastication may be affected.
What tests would you perform to assess this?
ask to open mouth agaisnt resistance
Which cranial nerve innervates stylopharyngeus?
The glossopharyngeal nerve
whats 1-5?
1: soft palate: roof of th eoral cavity
2. uvula: midleine extension of the mucosa of the soft palate
3 palatine tonsil: found between the two arches of mucosa that project down from soft palate
4 palatopharyngeal arch: lie postierior to palatine tonsils
- palaoglossal arch: lies anterior to palatine tonsils
name the three papillae in the tongue
which have taste buds (2)
- fungiform papillae: located anteriorly
- filiform papillae: loacted centrally
- circumvallate papillae: located posteriorly
fungiform and circumvallate = taste buds
1: superior longitudinal muscles
2: inferior longitudinal muscles
3: transverse muscles
4: vertical muscles
label 1-4 of the suprahyoid
1: thyrohyoid muscle
2: sternothryoid muscle
3: sternohyoid muscle
4: omohyoid muscle
what is the differnece in the role of the intrisic and extrinsic muscles of mouth?
what level does the pharnyx extend to?
where do the naso-p, oro-p and larngo-p lie between?
intrinsic muscle: change shape
extrinsic muscle: change position
pharynx extends to: C6
- *nasopharynx:** base of skull -> soft palate
- *oropharnyx:** soft palate -> epiglottis
- *larnygopharynx:** up to larnygeal opening
There are two groups of muscles that attach to the hyoid bone:
The ?? muscles (lie above the hyoid bone) and the ?? muscles (lie below the hyoid bone).
name each of ??
There are two groups of muscles that attach to the hyoid bone:
The suprahyoid muscles (lie above the hyoid bone)
- mylohyoid muscle: mandible –> hyoid
- digastric muscle: digastric fossa –> hyoid
- geniohyoid - narrow muscle superior to mylohyoid
and the infrahyoid muscles (lie below the hyoid bone):
- thyrohyoid muscle: hyoid -> thyroid
- sternothyroid muscle: sternum -> thyroid
- sternohyoid muscle: sternum -> hyoid
- omohyoid muscle
parotid gland recieves parasympathetic innervation from which nerve?
Which cranial nerve does not innervate the Parotid gland but is closely associated to the gland?
parotid gland recieves parasympathetic innervation from glossopharyngeal nerve
Which cranial nerve does not innervate the Parotid gland but is closely associated to the gland = The facial nerve (cranial nerve VII), gives rise to five terminal branches within the parotid gland. These branches go on to innervate the muscles of facial expression.
what is the arrow pointing to?
role?
uvula: central point of soft palate
function: can be elevated to prevent food moving into nasal passage
upper oesophageal sphincter is made from which muscle?
EOS: cricopharnyngeus muscle
