Answer:
Both extrinsic muscles, which are connected to the bone, and intrinsic muscles, which run throughout the tongue, make up the majority of the tongue's muscles. Three extrinsic muscles are present on each side. Hyoglossus and Genioglossus are the two largest of these, which we'll see today.
Explanation:
- the genioglossus and hyoglossus muscles, which together make up the tongue's root. We'll take the hyoglossus out for a second so we can see the entire genioglossus. The genioglossus is everything. Genioglossus develops from the upper portion of the cerebral spine, immediately above the genio-hyoid.
- The highest of its fibers arch almost to the tip of the tongue, while the lowest goes straight back to the backmost portion of the tongue. The tongue is pulled forward and compressed by the genioglossus.
- Let's bring hyoglossus back into the picture now. A slender, flat sheet of muscle called the hyoglossus. It has upward- and forward-moving fibers. Hyoglossus starts from the entire length of the greater horn of the hyoid bone (this is the greater horn), and it terminates here, along the side of the tongue. The tongue is pulled backward and downward by Hyoglossus, who also flattens it.
- The third extrinsic tongue muscle, styloglossus, is shown here next to the hyoglossus and is approaching from behind. Then, we'll observe it. The mylohyoid muscle can be observed in this perspective.
- The nerves that travel to the tongue and submandibular duct pass through the space between the mylohyoid and hyoglossus muscles, as we'll see in the following tape.
