hyoglossus muscle

hyoglossus muscle
Recently, a millionaire quiz, the man Camby won $ 50,000 by answering the anatomy class, "Where is hyoglossal?" All I can say is that the person has to be in medicine / biology, or health care professional.
The Hyoglossus is a very thin muscle located just below Adam’s apple in the neck and passes upwards to attach to sides of the tongue. The function of the Hyoglossus is to depress and retract the tongue. Without this function singing would be quite difficult.There is also word from anatomists that if the Hyoglossus gets damaged, males would have great difficulty giving oral sex. The Hyoglossus is not involved in sucking so women would have no problems giving oral sex.The Hyoglossus functions well during life and rarely does it get injured. The two disorders which can affect function of this muscle include stab wounds or a stroke. When a stab wound is made to the neck, the muscle can be cut and in most cases the injury is missed and quite difficult to repair. After a stroke recovery of function of the muscle depends on the degree of stroke.
When the stroke is dense, recovery is delayed and recovery may never occur.
Top TV went along with the types of questions asked. I think it's easy to all questions were answered and now everyone will be a profound knowledge of exotic topics. I'm sure that if medical practitioners were asked where or how it would function Hyoglossus, 99 percent had no idea. Good for you, Tony Westmoreland
