Q

What structures are related to connecting the outside to the inside? i didnt know how to word it properly innit

A
  • Ectoderm and Endoderm only (seen in Oral and Rectal areas)
  • Oropharyngeal membrane & cloacal membrane
  • These are points of transition

Q

What Cranial nerves does the Brainstem give rise to related to the Pharyngeal arch?

A

Cranial Nerves 5, 7, 9 & 10 -> these are the only ones related to the Pharyngeal Arch -> They grow into a bump of the pharyngeal apparatus

Q

Arteries of the Pharyngeal Arch and bumps

A
20
Q

What are the skeletal features involved with each bump of the Pharyngeal Arch?

A

Arch 1 -> Skeletal features of mastication (Upper inner ear bones & Maxially process below the eye)
Arch 2 -> Lower part of the inner ear to upper part of hyoid bone
Arch 3 -> Lower part of hyoid bone
Arch 4 & 6 -> Thyroid & Pharynx
Arch 5 disappears

21
Q

Pharyngeal Arch summarised

A
22
Q

What are the Arch 1 Cartilage and Bony Derivatives that help with mastication?

A

Maxillary process:
- Mesenchyme (from neural crest) -> premaxilla, maxilla, zygomatic bone and part of temporal bone
Mandibular process:
- Meckels cartilage -> Incus and Malleus
- Mandible

23
Q

What are the divisions of the Trigeminal nerve that supplies Arch 1

A

CNV = Cranial nerve 5

  • CNV1 = Ophthalamic
  • CNV2 = Maxillary
  • CNV3 = Mandibular
24
Q

What type of information is conveyed via each division of the Trigeminal nerve?

A

Ophthalmic -> General sensory
Maxillary -> General sensroy
Mandibular -> General motor and sensory

25
Q

What are special sensations?

A
  • ability to see, taste etc
  • only found in the head and neck
26
Q

What are the muscles derived from Arch 1 linked to mastication? and what are they innervated by?

A
  • Temporalis
  • Part of the Lateral Pterygoid
  • Masseter

Innervated by the branches of the Mandibular division of Trigeminal nerve

27
Q

What arches does the ear derive from?

A

Between Arches 1 & 2

28
Q

What is the tissue origin for External Acoustic Meatus (1st Groove/Cleft Derivative) and Tympanic Recess (1st Pouch Derivative)?

A

External Acoustic Meatus -> Ectoderm
Tympanic Recess -> Endoderm

29
Q

Derivatives of Ear summarised$

A
30
Q

What is Arch 2 associated with?

A

Facial expressions

30
Q

Does Arch 1 or 2 develop first? What is the significance of this?

A

Arch 1 develops first

Significance:
- muscles for facial expression will be superficial to muscles of mastication because they develop after

31
Q

What is the relationship between the Lingual nerve and Chorda Tympani nerve?

A
  • Chorda Tympani nerve connects to Lingual nerve on its way to the tongue
  • Lingual is Arch 1 whule Chorda Tympani is Arch 2
31
Q

What are some functional components of the facial nerve?

A

Visceral motor
Sensory
Muscle motor
Taste

32
Q

What Arch does the oral cavity derive from?

A

Between Arches 2 and 3

33
Q

What is the adult derivative of pouch 2?

A

Tonsillar fossa

34
Q

What is the Arch 3 skeletal derivative?

A

Greater horn of the Hyoid Bone

35
Q

What is the Arch 3 muscular derivative?

A

Stylopharyngeus muscle (name literally means between Arch 2 and Arch 4/6)

36
Q

What is the Arch 3 nerve derivative? What type of innervation?

A

Glossopharyngeal Nerve (CN IX)
Innervation:
- General sensory
- Special sensation
- Somatic motor

37
Q

What is the Pharyngeal Plexus?

A

mixing of nerves around the pharynx

38
Q

Where do some pouches migrate to?

A

inferiorly to the Thorax

39
Q

What does Pouch 3 develop into?

A

Inferior parathyroid gland and Thymus

40
Q

What does Pouch 4 develop into?

A

Superior parathyroid gland

41
Q

What are Arch 4 and 6 Cartilage and Bony derivatives?

A

Cricoid Cartilage and Arytenoid Cartilage

42
Q

What are Arch 4 and 6 muscle derivatives?

A

Cricothyroid
Levator veli palatine
Pharyngeal Constrictors (superior, middle, and inferior)
Stylopharyngeus
Larynx

43
