Anatomy Innervation of Tongue, Palate, Pharynx & Larynx ?

AOA! members.
We are learning innervation of some muscles today!

Glossal means pertaining to or near the tongue.. That's your starting point.

All muscles ending in "glossus" are supplied by hypoglossus
..Except palatoglossus.

Why? Because palate!

All musles of the palate are supplied by the vagus
..Except tensor veli palatani.

Why? Because it's a tensor!
All muscles in the head beginning with "tensor" are supplied by V3.

Pharynx and larynx is easy too.. All you need is a mnemonic!

​

That's it! Hope it helps.

 

That is just awesome

 

Kindly tell wat is V3 as u have written all tensors are supplied by V3

 

Oh it's an older version of current v8 and v6 engines.. You know what I am saying... Just Joking man

it's actually the third branch of fifth cranial nerve (trigeminal nerve ).
Got it .!!!!

 

The V3 is a branch of V ( 5th Cranial Nerve = Trigeminal Nerve )
Check out the diagram, here you go;

 

So u meant mandibular branch of trigeminal nerve...
Thanks for adding the pic

 

Remember it like this: Lets watch TV-3 ( T for "tensors" supplied by nerVe "V" ) where V is CN 5. Rest 3 denotes its 3rd branch.
Hope it clears now!
