Oral Cavity, Pharynx, and Larynx Flashcards
What is the origin of the anterior two-thirds of tongue?
stomodeum - ectoderm
What are the two components of the anterior two-thirds of tongue and their origins?
Median tongue bud - tuberculum impar
Distal tongue buds - lateral lingual swellings
Which cranial nerves contribute to the general sensation of the tongue?
Mandibular division of trigeminal nerve (V3)
Which cranial nerve contributes to taste and autonomics of the tongue?
chorda tympani nerve (branch of facial nerve VII)
Where does the posterior one-third of the tongue originate from?
pharynx - endoderm
Which structure makes up the posterior one-third of the tongue?
hypobranchial eminence
Which cranial nerve contributes to the hypobranchial eminence (posterior one-third of tongue)
glossopharyngeal nerve (IX)
Different mucosa tissue sources means…
multiple nerves innervate the tongue
Lingual papillae
small structures on the surface of the tongue that gives it its texture. There are four types.
What are the four types of lingual papillae?
circumvallate, foliate, fungiform, and filiform
Filiform papillae function
Most numerous papillae, responsible for the touch sensation, mechanical, and do not contain taste buds
Fungiform papillae - function and cranial nerve
They contain taste buds and are innervated by facial nerve (CN VII)
Circumvallate papillae - function and cranial nerve
taste and glossopharyngeal (CN IX)
Foliate papillae - function and cranial nerve
Taste and glossopharyngeal (CN IX)
How do muscles in the tongue form?
Myoblasts from occipital somites migrate into the tongue after the 5th week, and hypoglossal nerves trail the myoblasts and innervates the muscles
Muscular tissue in tongue - innervation
hypoglossal (CN XII)
Epiglottis - innervation
Vagus (CN X) sensory and taste innervation
Endoderm tissue of tongue (posterior 1/3 of mucosa) - innervation
Glossopharyngeal (CN IX) sensory and taste innervation
Anterior 2/3 of tongue - innervation
Facial nerve (CN VII - chorda tympani division)
Ectoderm tissue of tongue - innervation
Trigeminal nerve
Pharyngeal arch 1 - intermediate structures and adult structure of tongue
medial tongue bud -> replaced with lateral lingual swellings
Lateral lingual swellings -> mucosa of anterior two thirds of tongue
Pharyngeal arch 2 - intermediate structure and adult structure of tongue
copula -> overgrown by other structures
Pharyngeal arch 3 - intermediate structure and adult structure of tongue
ventral part of hypopharyngeal eminence -> mucosa of most of posterior one third of tongue
Pharyngeal arch 4 - intermediate structure and adult structure of tongue
dorsal part of hypopharygeal eminence -> mucosa of dorsal region of tongue
Occipital somites - intermediate structure and adult structures of tongue
myoblasts -> intrinsic muscles of tongue & palatoglossus muscle
