Question | Answer |
Top most visible muscles of the tongue | Superior Longitudinal |
Middle part of the tongue | Transverse and Vertical |
Tendon going down the center of the tongue | Lingual Septum |
Intrinsic muscules (purpose) | Change the shape of the tongue |
Intrinsic Lingual muscles (Back to front) | Longitudinal Lingual muscles |
Superior Longitudinal lingual muscles(Origin) | Back of the tongue off the mucus membrane |
Superior Longitudinal Lingual muscles (insertion) | Tip of tongue |
Superior lingitudinal muscles (function) | shorten the tongue and turn the tip upward |
Intrinsic lingual muscles (side to side) | Transverse lingual muscle |
Transverse lingual muscle (origin) | Medial Lingual septum |
Transverse Lingual Muscle (insertion) | Sides of the tongue |
Transverse Lingual Muscle (function) | Narrows the tongue |
Lingual muscles (top to bottom) | Vertical Lingual muscles |
Vertical Lingual Muscles (origin) | mucus membrane beneath the upper surface of the tongue |
Vertical lingual muscles (Insertion) | bottom surface of the tongue |
Vertical lingual muscles (function) | flatten and broaden the tongue when muscles are contracted |
Extrinsic Lingual Muscules (purpose) | Change the position of the tongue |
Name the extrinsic lingual muscles | Styloglossus, Hyoglossus and Genioglossus |
Styloglossus (origin) | Styloid process of the temporal bone |
Styloglossus (Insertion) | Side of the tongue |
Styloglossus (function) | function1: Pulls the tongue latterally if one side contracts, Function2: Pulls the tongue upward and backward if both sides contract |
Hyoglossus (Origin) | Greater cornu of the hyoid |
Hyoglossus (inserstion) | Sides of the tongue and styloglossus muscle |
Hyoglossus (function) | function1:Raise the hyoid bone for swollowing, function2: depress the back of the tongue |
Genioglosus (origin) | Bend of the mandible |
Genioglosus (insertion) | Hyoid bone |
Genioglosus (function - Superior) | If superior fibers contract, the tip of the tongue retracts |
Genioglosus (function-infereior) | If the medial/inferior fiber contract the entire tongue protracts |
Innervation of the Lingual muscles | XII cranial nerve- Hypoglossal nerve |
