Study Notes
Cranial Nerves
- The Seventh Cranial Nerve is the chief motor nerve of the face, controlling facial expressions and movements.
Skeletal System
- The skeletal system forms the physical foundation of the body, comprising bones and moveable and immovable joints.
Nervous System
- The Smaller Occipital Nerve affects the scalp and muscles behind the ear, playing a role in sensory and motor functions.
Cranial Bones
- The Sphenoid Bone acts as a connector, linking all the bones of the cranium together.
Central Nervous System
- The Spinal Cord is a part of the central nervous system, originating in the brain and extending downward through the spinal column.
Muscles
- The Sternocleidomastoideus muscle is located in the neck, responsible for depressing and rotating the head.
Blood Supply
- The Submental Artery supplies blood to the chin and lower lip, providing oxygen and nutrients.
- The Superficial Temporal Artery supplies blood to the muscles of the front, sides, and top of the head, supporting their functions.
Skeletal System
