(from C2 and C3 roots) supplies the skin covering the anterior cervical region

nose opens into the nasopharynx via what structures?
which artery crosses the recurrent (inferior) laryngeal nerve?
inferior thyroid vein drains into
innervation of the thryohyoid
True or False: the stylopharyngeus, salpingopharyngeus, and palatopharyngeus serve to shorten and widen pharynx during swallowing and speaking.
inferior thyroid artery arises from
sensory innervation of the sternocleidomastoid
which tonsils lie in the tonsillar fossa?
innervation of stylopharyngeus
motor innervation of the salpingopharyngeus
the roots of C1-C4 make up the _____?
posterior border of the posterior cervical triangle
provides sensory innervation above vocal folds
sinus between the palatoglossal and palatopharyngeal arches
originates chiefly from the C4 nerve root (but receives contributions from C3 and C5. innervates the diaphragm.
innervation of the longus capitis
triangle Bounded by anterior border of SCM, superior belly of omohyoid, midline of neck
innervation anterior belly of digastric muscle
motor innervation of superior constrictor muscle
innervation of the omohyoid
an emergency procedure where a cut or passageway is made in the cricothyroid membrane.
roof of posterior cervical triangle
the surgical creation of an artificial airway in the trachea (windpipe) on the anterior surface of the neck.
enlargement of the thyroid gland
nerve that supplies the skin of the neck and scalp posteriosuperior to the auricle. Comes from C2

Question	Answer
fascia with common carotid artery, internal jugular vein, and vagus nerve
Superior boundary of the anterior cervical triangle
innervation of platysma
three layers of deep fascia in the neck
hyoid bone lies at the level of which vertebra
provides motor innervation to most of the muscles of the tongue
motor innervation of middle constrictor muscle and inferior constrictor muscles
which muscle of the pharynx attaches along the oblique line of the thyroid cartilage and on the cricoid cartilage laterally
this layer of the deep cervical fascia forms a sheath around the vertebra and it's surrounding muscles
what muscle is the landmark for the division of the subclavian arteries
nerve is located in the tracheo-esophageal groove.
junction between the thorax and the neck is known as the
fascia of the neck prevents the spread of what?
innervation of the sternohyoid
this carotid artery has no branches in the neck
which muscle divides the neck into anterior and posterior triangles?
Thin, broad sheet of muscle within superficial fascia of the neck that is used in facial expression
supplies blood to the inferior part of the thyroid gland
the external jugular vein, suprascapular artery, and subclavian artery are contained in which portion of the posterior cervical triangle?
small depression of the laryngealpharyngeal cavity on each side of inlet
the point of entry to the venous system for central line placement to administer parenteral (nutritional) fluids and medications and to measure central venous pressure.
motor innervation of the sternocleidomastoid
an incomplete circular band of lymphoid tissues around the superior pharynx
this portion of the pharynx is bounded by the soft palate superiorly, the base of the tongue inferiorly and the platoglossal and platopharyngeal arches laterally
triangle located between inferior mandible and anterior and posterior bellies of the digastric muscle
portion of the pharynx that is posterior to the nose and superior to the soft palate
this area of deep cervical fascia is limited to the anterior portion of the neck and it contains a muscular portion (surrounds infrahyoid muscles) and a vascular portion ( surround
