  1. Chapter 10 The Muscular System Part C

  2. Muscles of the Anterior Neck and Throat: Suprahyoid • These four deep throat muscles form the floor of the oral cavity, anchor the tongue, elevate the hyoid, and move the larynx superiorly during swallowing

  3. Muscles of the Anterior Neck and Throat: Suprahyoid Figure 10.8a

  4. Muscles of the Anterior Neck and Throat: Infrahyoid • Straplike muscles that depress the hyoid and larynx during swallowing and speaking

  5. Muscles of the Anterior Neck and Throat: Infrahyoid Figure 10.8b

  6. Muscles of the Neck: Head Movements • Major head flexor is the sternocleidomastoid • Synergists to head flexion are the suprahyoid and infrahyoid • Lateral head movements are accomplished by the sternocleidomastoid and the scalene muscles • Head extension is accomplished by the deep splenius muscles and aided by the superficial trapezius

  8. Muscles of the Neck: Head Movements Figure 10.9b

  9. Trunk Movements: Deep Back Muscles • The prime mover of back extension is the erector spinae • Erector spinae, or sacrospinalis, muscles consist of three columns on each side of the vertebrae – iliocostalis, longissimus, and spinalis • Lateral bending of the back is accomplished by unilateral contraction of these muscles • Other deep back extensors include the semispinalis muscles and the quadratus lumborum

  11. Trunk Movements: Short Muscles • Four short muscles extend from one vertebra to another • These muscles are synergists in extension and rotation of the spine Figure 10.9e
