	Neck muscles
		The deltoid muscle moves the humerus bone and is used to raise the arm outward from the side.
		The muscles run upward and come together in the middle of their course (both pieces of the muscle lie side by side), but do not actually touch and are inserted in the front of the hyoid bone.
		The rectus capitis muscles are small triangular muscles that extend from the cervical vertebrae and insert in the occipital bone at the base of the skull.

		Geniohyoid is a muscle that spans from the mental spines of the mandible to the body of the hyoid bone--it elevates the hyoid and depresses the mandible.
		Hyoglossus is a tongue muscle; it is innervated by the hypoglossal nerve (CN XII).
		The medial pterygoid muscle protracts and elevates the mandible; it inserts on the medial surface of the ramus and angle of the mandible.

		The sublingual and submandibular spaces are separated by the mylohyoid muscle and are connected via the mylohyoid cleft (containing the tail of the submandibular gland, Wharton's duct, lingual nerve, hypoglossal nerve, lymphatics, and several arteries and veins).
		The roof is the mylohyoid muscle while the walls are inner surface of the body of mandible, anterior and posterior bellies of the digastric muscles.
		The submental space is bounded by the anterior bellies of the digastric muscle laterally, the mandible anteriorly, mylohyoid superiorly and the hyoid bone inferiorly.

		The hyoglossus is one of the extrinsic muscles of the tongue.
		The muscle is innervated by the hypoglossal nerve.
		The lymphatics of this muscle are relatively simple, all posterior superficial muscles of the tongue drain behind the edge of the mylohyoid and join the deep cervical nodes.

		Muscles of the Hind limb which include the Gastrocnemius (largest muscle of the shank), Peroneus Longus (lateral surface of the tibia), and the Peroneus Tertius (anterior side of the tibia).
		This muscle is wide and thin at its superior end where it originates on the iliac crest and narrows to a long tendon that inserts in at the fascia latae.
		This muscle is a narrow strap-like band united to its partner that runs along the midline of the ventral aspect of the neck.

		shift this innervation of the mylohyoid muscle to the neurons in the intermediate part of the nucleus in the rabbit.
		The left mylohoid muscle of twenty adult Wistar albino rats was injected slowly at three different places by means of Hamilton syringe mounted on a micro-drive machine, with 10-50µl of DAPI-Pr (25% of 4’6-Diamidino-2-phenyl indole-2-HCL added to equal amounts of 5% Primuline), after resection of the anterior belly of the digastric muscle under anesthesia.
		The spreading of the injected dye did not affect the underlying anterior belly of the digastric muscle because that muscle was resected, and no cells were found labeled in the caudal part of the nucleus (the domain area of the digastric muscle).

		Because these spaces communicate freely around the posterior border of the mylohyoid, some feel they should be considered as a single unit, The mylohyoid muscle also plays a key role in determining the direction of spread of dental infections.
		Its posterior boundary is the prevertebral fascia and its anterior boundary is the raphe junction of the buccinator and superior constrictor muscles.
		The retropharyngeal space is bordered anteriorly by the constrictor muscles and posteriorly by the alar layer of the deep cervical fascia.

	Mylohyoid muscle
		The Mylohyoid muscle, flat and triangular, is situated immediately above the anterior belly of the Digastricus, and forms, with its fellow of the opposite side, a muscular floor for the cavity of the mouth.
		It arises from the whole length of the mylohyoid line of the mandible, extending from the symphysis in front to the last molar tooth behind.
		The middle and anterior fibers are inserted into a median fibrous raphГ© extending from the symphysis menti to the hyoid bone, where they joint at an angle with the fibers of the opposite muscle.

		The trigeminal nerve is the fifth (V) cranial nerve,and carries sensory information from most of the face, as well as motor supply to the muscles ofmastication (the muscels enabling chewing), tensor tympani (in the ear) and other muscles in the floor of the mouth.
		It also supplies motor fibres to temporalis muscle, lateral pterygoidmuscle, medial pterygoid muscle, masseter muscle (the four main musclesinvolved in mastication), tensor veli palatini, mylohyoid muscle and the tensor tympani muscle.

		The facial artery passes behind the posterior digastric muscle and ascends vertically to lie posterior to the submandibular gland or interposed between the deep and superficial lobes.
