    Study Notes

    Folate Papillae

    • Threadlike, pointed structures containing tactile receptors
    • Thin, pointy projections (small cones) giving the tongue’s dorsal surface its characteristic rough texture

    Filiform Papillae

    • Arranged in "V"-shaped rows paralleling the sulcus terminalis on the anterior two-thirds of the tongue
    • Histologically show more keratinization than the other papillae
    • Overgrowth results in hairy tongue, loss results in glossitis

    Pharyngeal Arches

    • Six pairs of U-shaped bars that appear inferior to the stomodeum during the fourth week of embryonic development
    • Bordered medially by the pharynx
    • First pair appears as surface elevations lateral to the developing pharynx
    • Other arches appear as obliquely disposed, rounded ridges on each side of the future head and neck regions
    • Contribute to the formation of the lower head and neck
    • Separated from each other by ectodermlined pharyngeal grooves and internally lined by endodermal lined branchial pouches

    First Pharyngeal Arch

    • Artery becomes the maxillary artery which supplies the derivatives of the first pharyngeal arch
    • Ectodermal lining of the first arch gives rise to the oral epithelium

    Second Pharyngeal Arch

    • Musculature: Reichert’s cartilage
    • Intermediate part forms the stylohyoid ligament
    • Ventral part forms lesser cornu and the superior part of the body of the hyoid bone
    • Cranial nerve component: Stapes and portions of malleus and incus
    • Dorsal part forms the styloid process
    • Artery: Hyoid artery and stapedial artery which supply derivatives of the 2nd pharyngeal arch

    Third Pharyngeal Arch

    • Musculature: Third arch cartilage
    • Greater cornu of the hyoid bone and the lower half of the body of the hyoid bone
    • Cranial nerve component:
    • Arterial component: Common carotid and roots of the internal carotid arteries

    Fourth Pharyngeal Arch

    • Skeletal components: Thyroid cartilage and epiglottis
    • Musculature:
    • Cranial nerve component: Vagus nerve
    • Arterial component: Left side - part of the arch of the aorta, Right side - proximal portion of the right subclavian artery

    Fifth Pharyngeal Arch

    • Not visible on the surface of the embryo

    Sixth Pharyngeal Arch

    • Musculature:
    • Skeletal components: Laryngeal cartilages (except thyroid and epiglottis)
    • Cranial nerve component: Vagus nerve
    • Arterial component:

    Pharyngeal Pouches

    • Five pairs of endodermal evaginations from the lateral walls lining the pharynx
    • Balloon-like structures in a craniocaudal sequence between the branchial arches
