	IV. Myology. 5c. The Supra- and Infrahyoid Muscles. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
		The Sternohyoideus (Sternohyoid muscle) is a thin, narrow muscle, which arises from the posterior surface of the medial end of the clavicle, the posterior sternoclavicular ligament, and the upper and posterior part of the manubrium sterni.
		Below, this muscle is separated from its fellow by a considerable interval; but the two muscles come into contact with one another in the middle of their course, and from this upward, lie side by side.
		The central tendon of this muscle varies much in length and form, and is held in position by a process of the deep cervical fascia, which sheaths it, and is prolonged down to be attached to the clavicle and first rib; it is by this means that the angular form of the muscle is maintained.

	CHAPTER 49: THE SUBMANDIBULAR REGION
		The tendon that connects the anterior and posterior bellies of the muscle is anchored to the hyoid bone, commonly passing through the stylohyoid muscle.
		Deep to the muscles lie the external and internal carotid arteries, the internal jugular vein, cranial nerves X-XII, and the sympathetic trunk.
		The submandibular ganglion lies on the lateral surface of the hyoglossus muscle, medial to the mylohyoid muscle, superior to the submandibular duct and hypoglossal nerve, and inferior to the lingual nerve, from which it is suspended by several branches.

		Geniohyoid is one of the suprahyoid muscles of the anterior triangle of the neck.
		It arises from the inferior mental spine on the posterior surface of the symphysis menti of the mandible.
		Geniohyoid is innervated by fibres from the first cervical (C1) nerve root which are relayed via the hypoglossal nerve.

	Current state of the tongue model
		Length sections of the Genioglossus muscle are visible (dark matter in the center of the jaw), and cross sections of the Mylohyoid (directly next to the bone of the mandible) and the Hyoglossus muscle (very dark, interrupted semicircle around the tongue body).
		On the other hand, the fiber directions of the geniohyoid which connects a lower point of the mandible (behind the chin) to the front of the hyoid bone is not visible and can only be assumed to be roughly parallel to its outer boundaries.
		muscle is on the underside of the tongue and forms a slab that connects to a rim on the inside of the mandible.

	Larynx
		The cricothyroid muscle lies anterior and external to the larynx and was identified in the study of the muscular triangle of the neck.
		This muscle rotates the arytenoid cartilages laterally (abduct), causing the vocal cords to separate from one another, opening the rima glottidis.
		This serves to shorten the tubal length of the air passage between the base of the skull (body of sphenoid) and the vocal cords.

		The Geniohyoid muscle is a narrow muscle situated above the medial border of the mylohyoid muscle.
		It arises from the inferior mental spine on the back of the symphysis menti, and runs backward and slightly downward, to be inserted into the anterior surface of the body of the hyoid bone; it lies in contact with its fellow of the opposite side.

	Muscle fiber type alters after intermittent hypoxic stimulation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Objective: To determine whether intermittent hypoxia (IH) alters fiber-types of the skeletal muscle, we hypothesize that the principal fiber-type of rat geniohyoid muscles would change from type-2A to type-2B to intermittent hypoxia, while no change in muscle properties would occur in the diaphragm.
		Single fibers harvested from the target muscles were mechanically isolated using a dissecting scope and micro-tweezers.
		However, fiber types of the geniohyoid muscle began to exhibit changes from MHC 2A to 2B after 5 hr of IH exposure, and this conversion was readily evident at 10 hr.
