31 spinal nerves
Arteries carry... - blood AWAY from the heart (oxygenated blood; except in pulmonary system)

The larynx is ___(position)_____ in relation to the trachea - superior
The larynx can be imagined like a tube with 2 openings and a valve. The first opening is the ______,
the valve in the _______, and the second opening is the __________- - superior opening: laryngeal
vestibule
valve: vocal folds
inferior opening: trachea
,The larynx is made up of ____#_______ of cartilages and _______#________ cartilages - 3 unpaired
cartilages (thyroid, cricoid, epiglottis) and 3 paired cartilages (arytenoid, corniculate, cuneiform)
Larynx cartilages are connected to the __________ superiorly and the ________ inferiorly - - hyoid
bone
- trachea
this important landmark is located on the superficial surface of the thyroid cartilage - laryngeal
prominence (adam's apple)
cricoid cartilage is found above or beneath the thyroid cartilage? - below - inferior to
cricothyroid movement (2 types), and which one do we care about more as SLPs and why? - rotating
(tilting) and sliding
As the thyroid cartilage tips forward/backwards it enlongates/shortens the vocal folds which raises or
decreases pitch
cricoarytenoid movements (2 types) and which one do we care about as SLPs? - rocking and gliding
The rocking motion causes the opening and closing of the vocal folds
which joints allow for the opening and closing of vocal folds? - cricoarytenoids
which joints allow for the lengthening/shortening of vocal folds? - cricothyroids
epiglottis role - - protect airway in swallowing
the _________________ membrane connects the epiglottis, thyroid cartilgae, and arytenoid
cartilages - quadrangular membrane
the hyoid bone is sometimes referred to as the _____ - floating bone
, which cartilages attach to the hyoid bone? - epiglottis
thyroid cartilage
The cerebrum is the largest part of the CNS and is comprised of (7) - - cerebral cortex
- basal ganglia
- thalamus
- hypothalamus
- hippocampus
- amygdala
- subcortical white matter
brain orientation - front/anterior portion is AKA ______ - rostral
brain orientation - top/superior portion is AKA ______ - dorsal
brain orientation - back/posterior portion is AKA _____ - caudal
brain orientation - bottom/inferior portion is AKA ____ - ventral
which lobe is rostral? - frontal
which lobe is dorsal? - parietal
which lobe is caudal? - occipital
which lobe is ventral? - temporal
the cerebral cortex is deeply folded. The surface of the folds are called _________, and the grooves
are called ____________ - gyri
fissures/sulci
