Precentral Gyrus
The primary motor area (motor neurons) Controls voluntary movement on opposite side of the body Because: Nerve fibers from precentral gyrus
Postcentral Gyrus
The primary sensory area (sensory nerve cells)
1- Spinal cord : general senstion 2- Medulla oblongata : fine sensation ( fine touch ) or vibration
3. Auditory area: interpretation of sound location In the middle of the superior temporal gyrus
4. Visual area: interpretation of vision medial aspect of occipital lobe (post. pole of cerebrum)
5. Motor Speech area: (Brocas area) Planning & production of speech in a comprehensive way location In the middle of inferior frontal gyrus 6. Wernickes (Language) area interprets the meaning of speech by recognizing spoken words Location In the posterior part of the superior temporal gyrus
expressive aphasia
non-fluent aphasia
Pons Contains bundles of axons that connect the 2 halves of cerebellum Bundles of axons connect Controls arousal Medulla Oblongata: Site of crossing over of motor bundles Contains nuclei of cranial nerves VIII XII Cardiovascular center (Fxn: control heart rate) Respiratory rhythmicity area (Fxn : control respiration rate ) Cerebellum coordination of muscle tone & movements on same side of body Regulates posture & balance

Medial Surface
Lateral Surface
Vertebral Arteries
The 2 vertebral a. join at lower border of Pons to form: Basilar artery V. a. branches: (4) post. Meningeal a. ( dura mater) ant. & post. Spinal a. ( spinal cord) post. Inf. Cerebellar a. (cerbulum) medullary a. (medulla oblongata)
Basilar Artery
4 branches arteries to cerebellum Labyrinthine artery Pontine a.
Post. Cerebral a.: turns backward at midbrin supply: occipital lobe inferolateral Part of temporal lobe & the medial part of temporal lobe
ant. Cerebral a.
ICA Post. Communicating a post. Cerebral a. basilar a.
Cranial Nerves
12 pairs PNS
Fxn.
Skull Foramina Site of brain they appear
Parotid Region
Extends between: the ramous of the mandible anteriorly & the mastoid process posteriorly
3. Deep: ECA & its terminations ( the beginning part of maxillary a. and superficial temporal a.) )
4. Parotid L.N.: distributed within & on the gland drain into DCLN
5. Auriculotemporal nerve: from the posterior division of mandibular nerve pass posterior to superficial temporal vessels
Artery maxillary a.
Veins pterygoid venous plexus max. vein Ligament: spheno-mandibular ligament
Maxillary Artery
Largest terminal branch of external carotid a. Arises post. to the neck of the mandible Divided by lat. Pterygoid Into 3 parts: 1. Mandibular (1st) 2. Pterygoid (2nd) 3. Pterygopalatine (3rd)
Oral Cavity
The cavity that extends from lips to pharynx & contains the tongue & teeth 2 parts: 1. Vestibule: space between ? contains ? divides into sulci: labial & buccal 2. Oral cavity proper: enclosed by teeth
Action: change tongue shape Extrinsic: 4 (5 ) muscles innervation by hypoglossal nerve Except the palato-glossus ( pharyngeal nerve)
Ascending pharyngeal a.
Sup. Meatus: pos. ethmoidal Mid. Meatus: all except pos. ethmoidal and sphenoid Inf. Meatus: naso lacremal duct
4 degrees of cleft palate 1st : cleft uvula 2nd: + cleft of 2o palate 3rd: + cleft on one side of 1o palate 4th: + cleft on both sides of 1o palate
Intrinsic Muscles
2 groups - control Laryngeal inlet (2 muscles): oblique arytenoid ( action close ) thyroepiglottic (action wide )
- move vocal folds (5 muscles): cricothyroid thyroarytenoid lateral cricoarytenoid posterior cricoarytenoid transverse arytenoid Read the table in your book for the Origin?, Insertion?, Nerve supply?, & Action of these muscles

Muscles of Pharynx
(Read your text for origin, insertion, innervation & action of these muscles)
6 Muscles 3 constrictors: Sup., mid. & inf. - Run in circular direction & attached post. to pharyngeal raphe - The successive contraction of these muscles produces the action of swallowing Overlap each other in the direction of inferior to superior ( the inferior constrictor is covering the lower part of the middle constrictor and the middle constrictor is covering the lower part of the superior constrictor )
Killians Dehiscence
Inferior constrictor m. consists of 2 parts:
- Sup.: thyropharyngeus - Inf.: cricopharyngeus
* A weak area presents between The 2 parts of inf. constrictor m. m.m. may protrude giving rise to a pharyngeal pouch
Nasopharynx
Post. To nasal cavity & above the soft palate
Oropharynx
Post. To oral cavity & opens to it Through oropharyngeal isthmus Between the soft palate superiorly and the posterior 3rd of the tongue inferiorly At the level of C2 and C3
The floor is made by: post. 1/3 of tongue & the valleculae Contains: Palatine tonsils: between ? over sup. Constrictor m. tonsillar bed
Laryngeopharynx
From epiglottis to cricoid C.
At vertebral level
