A. Temporal
B. Zygomatic
C. Buccal
D. Maxillary
E. Cervical
A

D. Maxillary

MANDIBLE not Maxillary

41
Q

T or F: The parotid gland is the largest of the paired salivary glands.

A

True!

42

A. Masseter
B. Medial pterygoid
C. Buccinator
D. Lateral pterygoid
E. Temporalis
A

C. Buccinator

ASSISTANT muscle of mastication - helps neonates to suckle

True!

44
Q

Which of the following is NOT true about the pharynx?
A. It is a muscular tube that extends from the base of the skull to the esophagus
B. It has 3 sections - naso, -oro, and laryngo-
C. It has 3 constrictions - upper, middle and lower
D. It is open posteriorly to nasal and oral cavities, and larynx

A

D. It is open ANTERIORLY not posteriorly

45
Q

The junction of the frontal, sphenoid, parietal, and temporal bones form the pterion, which is behind the zygomatic arch. A skull fracture in this area has the potential to damage intracranial blood flow. Which intracranial artery is directly behind the pterion?

A

Middle meningeal artery; bleeding can lead to extradural hematoma

46
Q

T or F: The eyeball is positioned in the orbit to allow us to look straight ahead.

A

False; if it was we would be looking away from the midline

47
Q

Why is the levator palpebrae superioris important for eye movements?

A

Lifts the eyelid in a superior direction when the eyeball is elevated. Otherwise we would just see the back of our eyelid

48
Q

What 3 nerves innervate the eye muscles?

A

Trochlear (CN IV) - superior oblique
Occulomotor (CN III) - superior rectus; inferior rectus; medial rectus; inferior oblique
Abducens (CN VI) - lateral rectus

49
Q

T or F: The central retinal artery is a branch of the opthalamic artery.
Why is this important?

A

True! It is the artery seen on an opthalmoscopic exam and provides a window to the state of arterial and venous systems. Also gives glimpse at intracranial hypertension by the shape of the optic nerve and disc

50
Q

Where does the venous drainage from the orbit and eyeball proceed? Why is this important?

A

In general, the superior portion of the eye drains into the cavernous sinus. The inferior portion drains into the pterygoid plexus
Important because drainage from the orbit may serve as a route for infection inside the cranial cavity

51
Q

Where is the inner ear located?

A

In the temporal bone; roughly located by the internal acoustic meatus

52
Q

Which nerves enter the internal acoustic meatus?

A

Facial Nerve CNVII

Vestibulocochlear nerve CN VIII

53
Q

The temporal bone encases the inner ear. What are the inner ear components?

A

Semicircular canals and cochlea

54
Q

What is another name for the pharyngotympanic tube? What is it’s function?

A

Eustachian tube; it establishes atmospheric equilibrium with the middle ear and out environment

55
Q

What sensory nerve innervates the organs of balance in the ear? Why are the organs arranged at 90 degree angles?

A

Vestibular branch of the vestibulocochlear n.

They form 3 planes x, y, and z that gives our brains a sense of orientation of the x, y and z axes

56
Q

How does bony transmission of sound occur?

A

Vibration of the bone will still cause movement of air within the vestibule and vibrate the cochlea itself

57
Q

What does the stapedius muscle do? What nerve innervates it?

A

Connects stapes and cochlea
Innervated by the mandibular branch of the facial nerve VII;
It decreases oscillation of the stapes at the oval window

58
Q

What is the function of the tensor tympani muscle? What nerve innervates it?

A

connectes to the malleolus at the tympanic membrane; tenses the tympanic membrane to decrease the effect of loud noises
Innervated by the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve

59
Q

With a smile, what do facial muscles and the buccal fat pad create on your facial features?

A

Dimples!

60
Q

Which cranial nerve innervates all of the facial muscles?

A

Facial Nerve CNVII

ALL motor EXCEPT mandibular branch!

61
Q

What are the muscles of mastication? Which nerve controls these muscles?

A 
Temporalis
Medial Pterygoid
Lateral Pterygoid
Masseter
"Tom Makes Lo Mein"

Mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve (ONLY motor branch of the trigeminal nerve)

62
Q

What are the 5 branches of the facial nerve?

A 
"To Zanzabar By Manmade Car"
Temporal
Zygomatic
Buccal
Mandibular
Cranial
