What are the two muscles that are inserted in or on the hyoid bone of a cat?
The two muscles inserted in or on the hyoid bone of a cat are the geniohyoideus muscle and the mylohyoideus muscle. The geniohyoideus muscle inserts onto the hyoid bone, while the mylohyoideus muscle attaches to the body of the hyoid bone.
Which muscles are not attached to the bones?
There are two: the incus and the talus (or four if you count two on each side of the body). The incus is a middle ear bone. The other two middle ear bones, the stapes and malleus, have attachments with the Stapedius and Tensor Tympani muscles respectively. The Talus, which is in the foot, also has no muscle attachments.
There's a tissue or structure which is located superior to the hyoid bone there are two words in the name of this tissue or structure what is it?
The tissue or structure located superior to the hyoid bone is the hyothyroid membrane.
What two worded bone or tissue or structure is above the Hyoid bone The second letter of the first word is a?
Laryngeal cartilage
What is the function of hyoglossus?
General Information:The hyoid bone (lingual bone) (Latin os hyoideum) is a horseshoe shaped bone situated in the anterior midline of the neck between the chin and the thyroid cartilage.It is the only bone in the human skeleton not articulated to any other bone. It is held in place by thyroid ligaments. The hyoid bone provides attachment to the muscles of the floor of the mouth and the tongue above, the larynx below, and the epiglottis and pharynx behind.Its name is derived from the Greek word hyoeides meaning "shaped like the letter upsilon" (υ).Specifically, as per inquiry:The human hyoid bone allows for the production of a wide range of sounds that other animals cannot produce. It allows a broader range of tongue, pharyngeal and laryngeal movements by bracing these structures alongside each other in order to produce variation.Paraphrased from Wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyoid_bone
Are there any bones in a tongue?
Within the head there are no bones under the human tongue. Apart from the Mandible (Jaw bone) the entirity of the bottom part of the mouth is soft tissue, mostly muscle. The main muscles are the Geniohyoid and the Mylohyoid which attach between the inside of the mandible and, the only bone in the human body not connected to another, the Hyoid bone. This bone is present the neck as an attachment for muscles. It is a U shaped bone that is suspended by various muscles (the two above plus the Digastric and the Stylohyoid) above the thyroid cartilage. This is the bone that is often uset to determine, post mortem, if a person was strangled as it is easily broken.
What bone of the skull has two heads?
The hyoid bone, located in the neck, is the only bone in the body that does not articulate with any other bone. It has a body and two pairs of horns, or greater and lesser horns, giving it a two-headed appearance.
What is the shape of the hyoid bone?
Human hyoid bones, according to the main characteristics of their shape, studied in 76 bones, may be classified into five types, in the following order of frequency:D-type 29%, B-type 26.5%, H-type 21%, U-type 18.5%, and V-type 5.0%. The frequency of the types is to a certain (but not statistically significant) degree sex-related. In 60% of the cases the shape of the hyoid bone does not belong to any of the shapes that are conventionally described. Almost half of the hyoid bones are asymmetric and/or anisometric. According to their width the hyoid bones may be designated as narrow (45%), intermediate (34%) and wide (21%). There is no standard correlation of the distance between the tubercles of the greater horns to the distance between the lesser horns in the same hyoid bone. On the contrary, with the exception of the horseshoe-shaped bones, the former distance almost coincides to the length of the major transverse axis of the same bone. The two dimensional size of the hyoid bone, which is of importance to the vital space of the superior opening of the lower respiratory tract, varies greatly, and to a certain degree it is related to the hyoid shape.
What muscles are attached to the ulna bone?
The thumb extensors are examples of muscles that attach to the ulna bone. The ulna bone is one of the two long bones in the forearm and can also be called the elbow bone.
How do lions make their rawr noise?
