Muscles for Exam 2 Flashcards
Give the origin and insertion of the sternohyoid muscle
origin: Behind manubrium of sternum
insertion: Hyoid bone
Give the innervation of the sternohyoid muscle
Ansa cervicalis (C1-3)
What is the action of the sternohyoid muscle?
Depress larynx as a whole
What blood vessels supply the sternohyoid muscle?
a) Inf. thyroid a.
b) Sup. thyroid a.
Give the origin and insertion of the sternothyroid muscle.
origin: Post. manubrium of sternum (below sternohyoid m.)
innsertion: Oblique line of thyroid cartilage
What is the innervation of the sternothyroid muscle?
Ansa Cervicalis (C1-3)
What is the action of the sternothyroid muscle?
Depresses Larnyx as a whole
What supplies the sternothyroid muscle?
superior and inferior thyroid arteries
Give the origin and insertion of the omohyoid muscle
origin: Upper border of scapula
insertion: Lower border of hyoid bone
n. b. Inf. and Sup. belly separated by tendon
Give the innervation to the omohyoid muscle.
Superior belly innervated by the superior root of the ansa cervicalis (descendens hypoglossi), inferior belly is innervated by the decendens cervicalis
What is the action of the omohyoid muscle?
1) Depress larynx, hyoid bone
2) Pull hyoid back, to side
What supplies the omohyoid muscle?
superior and inferior thyroid arteries
Where is the origin of the thyrohyoid muscle? Where does it insert?
Originates from the oblique line of thyroid cartilage, inserts on the hyoid bone
What innervates the thyrohyoid muscle?
innervated by ventral rami of C1 via hypoglossal nerve
What is the action of the thyrohyoid muscle?
1) Elevate larynx as a whole
2) Depress hyoid
What arteries supply the thyrohyoid muscle?
superior and inferior thyroid arteries
What is the origin of the digastric muscle?
Med. mastoid process of temporal bone = post. belly
Where is the insertion of the digastric muscle?
Inner mandible near midline = ant. belly
n.b. passes thru intermediate tendon pulley attached to hyoid
What innervates the diagastric muscle?
a) Ant. belly = CN5 (V3) – n. to mylohyoid m.
b) Post. belly = CN7 (facial n.)
What is the action of the diagastric muscle?
1) Elevate larynx as a whole
2) Open mouth (holding hyoid)
What supplies blood to the diagastric muscle?
a) Ant. belly = Facial a.
b) Post. belly = Occipital a.
Where is the origin of the stylohyoid muscle?
Styloid process of temporal bone
Where is the insertion of the hyoid bone?
Greater cornu of Hyoid bone
What is the innervation to the stylohyoid muscle?
CN7 (facial n.)
