Q

origin / insertion: interarytenoid, transverse

A

origin : lateral-posterior aspect of the arytenoid cartilage :: insertion : across and to the opposite of the arytenoid cartilage

32
Q

function: on contraction: decreases distance between the thyroid and cricoid cartilages and increases the distance between the thyroid and arytenoid cartilages. lengthens the vocal folds which increases longitudinal tension to increase pitch

A

cricothryoid, pars oblique AND pars recta

33

A

on contraction: decreases distance between the thyroid and cricoid cartilages and increases the distance between the thyroid and arytenoid cartilages. lengthens the vocal folds which increases longitudinal tension to increase pitch

35
Q

origin / insertion: cricothyroid, pars recta

A

origin : anterolateral arch of the cricoid :: insertion : lower margin of the thyroid

36
Q

function: decreases distance between the thyroid and arytenoid cartilages. shortens vocal folds, relaxes cover, tenses body, bulks the vocal folds, aids in adduction, changes pitch

A

thyroarytenoid muscles, vocalis AND muscularis

37
Q

origin / insertion: thyroarytenoid muscles, vocalis AND muscularis

A

origin : deep surface of thyroid angle :: insertion : lateral / inferior aspect of the vocal processes of arytenoids (some fibers attach to the muscular process)

A

superior laryngeal nerve and recurrent laryngeal nerve

52
Q

two parts of superior laryngeal branch of vagus nerve
