THE HEAD AND NECK The head and neck region is an amalgam of components of all of the systems of the body. It is a relatively small region in relation to the amount of time given over to it in any anatomy course but that is largely due to the fact the structures within the region are small. The basic principles which have helped you to appreciate the anatomy of the other regions of the body apply equally to the head and neck (eg‚ muscles which cross a joint will act on that joint‚ etc)

SYSTEMIC ANATOMY 1. Give OIAN of the tongue. The muscles of tongue can be divided into intrinsic and extrinsic groups. The intrinsic muscles lie entirely within the tongue‚ while the extrinsic muscles attach the tongue to other structures. The extrinsic muscles reposition the tongue‚ while the intrinsic muscles alter the shape of the tongue for talking and swallowing. Extrinsic tongue muscles‚ by definition‚ originate from structures outside the tongue and insert into the tongue. The four paired
