Q

Pharyngeal arches (bars of mesenchymal tissue)

4th week of development

A

a typical pharyngeal arch consists of the following:
- an aortic arch: an a.a. arising from the truncus arteriosus (of primordial heart)

  • a cartilaginous rod- skeleton of the arch
  • muscular component- muscles of head and neck
  • a nerve- supplies mucosa and muscles derived from arch

22
Q

posterior 1/2 of tongue

A

A

the posterior triangle

24
Q

which of the following spinal nerves contribute to the formation of the cervical plexus?

A

c1-c4

25
Q

what muscle gets its motor supply from the facial nerve?

A

posterior scalene (the anterior and middle scalenes insert on to 1st rib)

27
Q

which muscle inserts in to the oblique line of the thyroid cartilage?

A

Sternothyroid

28
Q

which of the following nerves provides motor supply to most of the infrahyoid muscles?

A

ansa cervicalis

29
Q

which of the following spinal nerves contribute to the brachial plexus?

A

c5-T1

30
Q

what vein drains the external jugular vein

A

the external jugular vein drains into the subclavian vein

31
Q

which of the following is a suprahyoid muscle?

A

stylohyoid

32
Q

what muscle seperates the anterior from the posterior cervical triangles?

A

the SCM

33
Q

the superior thyroid a.a. is a branch of the ______

A

the external carotid a.a. (the inferior thyroid a.a. is a branch of the thyrocervical trunk)

34
Q

which structure lies medially to the thyroid gland?

A

the recurrent laryngeal nerve. (clinical signif. is that in surgical operations of the thyroid the recurrent laryngeal may cause aphonia (harshness or total voice loss))

A

the trachea is supplied by a branch from each inferior thyroid a.a.

36
Q

which thyroid vein drains in to the brachiocephalic vein?

A

inferior thyroid vein (the superior and middle thyroid vein drains in to the internal jugular vein)

37
Q

what provides sensory supply to the trachea?

A

recurrent laryngeal nerve
