Hard palate It forms a partition between the nasal passages and the mouth. On the anterior portion of the roof of the hard palate are the rugae, irregular ridges in the mucous membrane that help facilitate the movement of food backwards towards the pharynx.This partition is continued deeper into the mouth by a fleshy extension called the soft palate.he hard palate is a thin horizontal bony plate of the skull, located in the roof of the mouth.

Isthmus of the fauces The anterior one is known as the palatoglossal arch, and the posterior one is known as the palatopharyngeal arch. Between these two arches is the palatine tonsil. Each palatoglossal arch runs downwards, laterally and forwards, from the soft palate to the side of the tongue. The approximation of the arches due to the contraction of the palatoglossal muscles constricts the isthmus, and is essential to swallowing (deglutition).

- Basic Anatomy of the Mouth and Teeth. The entrance to the digestive tract, the mouth is lined with mucous membranes. The membrane-covered roof of the mouth is called the palate. The front part consists of a bony portion called the hard palate, with a fleshy rear part called the soft palate. The hard palate divides the mouth and the nasal passages above.

- Elastic cartilage forms this thin, teardrop-shaped flap. A mucous membrane coats the epiglottis. The side facing the mouth is covered in cells similar to those in the rest of the mouth, whereas the backside is covered with cells resembling those of the larynx. The epiglottis is held in place by two ligaments.

Anatomy of the Nose The anterior three fourths of the floor of the nasal cavity are formed by the palatal process of the maxillary bone. Posteriorly, the remaining part is formed by the horizontal process of the palatine bone.part from the nasal vestibule which is lined by stratified squamous epithelium, nasal cavity is lined by pseudostratified columner ciliated epithelium i.e. respiratory epithelium. Each nasal fossa has four walls; roof, floor, septal wall, and lateral wall.

- The secondary palate forms a second roof of the mouth that is closer to the tongue than the primary palate. The internal nares are moved to the rear of the mouth behind the teeth. a. External nares to nasal cavity b. Passes rearward between secondary palate beneath and ruminants of primary palate. c. Internal nares -> back of mouth Allows the animal to breathe while it’s holding something in its mouth.

muscle Together they depress ribs; one side alone produces lateral flexion of vertebral column. The levator ani muscle along with a second muscle forms the pelvic floor. These muscles form the pelvic diaphragm which supports and maintains the position of the pelvic viscera.ogether with the infrahyoid muscles (discussed below) these muscles fix the hyoid bone and this enables the hyoid bone to serve as a firm base for the attachment of the tongue. As a group these muscles also elevate the hyoid bone, the floor of the oral cavity, and tongue during swallowing. Muscle.

The Anatomy of the Nose The walls of the nasal cavity include the following features: 1  Roof: The roof is divided into three parts: frontonasal, ethmoidal, and sphenoidal. 2  Floor: The floor consists of the palatine process of the maxilla and the horizontal plate of the palatine bone.

Oral Cavity The first section of the mouth is known as the oral cavity, or the mouth cavity. This space is bordered in the front and to the sides by the two alveolar arches, which contain the teeth. Toward the back it is bordered by the isthmus of the fauces. This entire structure is also called the mouth; the structures within the mouth allow us to taste and masticate (chew) food, to swallow food and drink, and to manipulate the air that comes up from the voice box so that we can form words.

Basic Structures of the Mouth A very simple labelled diagram of the mouth (anterior view of the mouth) is shown below, followed by notes about each of the structures labelled. This is useful for introductory level courses but doesn't include all of the parts of the mouth that are involved in the initial stages of the digestion process.he lower-lip is also known as the inferior lip and is the lip closest to the chin (as opposed to closest to the nose). 3. Hard Palate. The hard palate extends over most of the roof of the mouth. The solid structure of the hard palate is formed by the maxillae and palatine bones.

Craniofacial anomalies â Cleft and/or cleft palate The roof of the mouth is also called the palate. A cleft palate is when there is an opening or cleft in the roof of the mouth due to the palate not closing during development before birth. About 3% of all babies have some kind of birth defect. One of the most common birth defects is a cleft lip and/or palate.
