Muscle and Nerve Innervation of the LarynxResponsible for stabilizing the hyoid bone and innervated by the hypoglossal XII:
- Sternohyoid, Stylohyoid, Thyrohyoid, Omohyoid
- Stylohyoid, Omohyoid, Mylohyoid, Stylothyroid
- Sternohyoid, Sternothyoid,Thyrohyoid, Omohyoid
- Sternohyoid, Stylothyoid, Sternothyroid, Thyrohoid
- Omohyoid, Sternothyroid, ,Stylothyroid, mylohyoid
Correct Answer

A. Sternohyoid, Sternothyoid,Thyrohyoid, Omohyoid

Explanation

The muscles responsible for stabilizing the hyoid bone and innervated by the hypoglossal XII are the Sternohyoid, Sternothyroid, Thyrohyoid, and Omohyoid muscles. These muscles help to support and position the hyoid bone, which is important for swallowing and speech production. The hypoglossal nerve (cranial nerve XII) provides motor innervation to these muscles, allowing them to contract and perform their functions.

The ___________ elevates the hyoid bone, raises floor of mouth during swallowing and is innervated by _____________ ?*** Answer should appear such as this (example only): frontalis, facial VII ***

Correct Answer
mylohyoid, trigeminal V

Explanation
The mylohyoid muscle elevates the hyoid bone and raises the floor of the mouth during swallowing. It is innervated by the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V).

6.

The ___________ elevates and draws hyoid bone forward and assists in depressing mandible. Is also innervated by ______________.*** Answer should appear such as this (example only): frontalis, facial VII ***

Correct Answer
geniohyoid, hypoglossal XII

Explanation
The geniohyoid muscle elevates and draws the hyoid bone forward, as well as assists in depressing the mandible. It is innervated by the hypoglossal nerve (XII).
