The organ consisting of 16 muscles completely penetratedblood vessels that never sleep. What is it about? It is a human language, through which we are able to enjoy the taste of food. Moreover, it also helps to speak clearly and clearly, because it is language that participates in the formation of all vowels and even some consonant letters. How does he do it? Thanks to the special arrangement of the muscles of the tongue.
Language is divided into three parts - the root, the tip and the body itself. All three parts are covered with papillae of different species.
Between the body and the root there is a blind hole behind which the amygdala is hidden. The hole itself is a tongue-tied tongue overgrown with ducts.
The salivary glands are located at the top and along the edges, and the blood vessels pierced through all the muscles allow the tongue to be an ideal assistant in enjoying food and digesting in principle.
Anatomy of the language allows him to cope with several functions:
About what helps us to pronounce clear sounds, we'll talk.
The mass of this organ is formed by the muscles of the tongue. They are also divided into several categories:
Первая группа мышц укорачивает язык и делает его more thick. She also helps to take him aside. Some of its parts are involved in squeezing the pharynx and throat, and are also responsible for education in the tongue of the groove. But the second group has more advanced functionality. However, it is worth considering not just both groups, but each component separately.
It is a paired muscle of the tongue, which is actually very thin and is already under the aponeurosis. It's like hugging the tongue, sitting on the sides, above all others, if you look at it from the partition.
The upper longitudinal muscle completely corresponds to its name, going from the root of the tongue.
It helps to take the tongue aside and creates a thickening on it, making it shorter.
И снова речь о внутренней группе мышц, которую не find in the photo language. She is also a steamer and walks next to the bottom. The longitudinal muscle is located between the chin-lingual and sublingual-lingual muscles. There is also the lower surface of the tongue.
This muscle of the tongue is attached to the aponeurosis from above and has the same functions as the upper longitudinal one.
It is a muscle from the second group, which departs from the chin awn. She smoothly goes to the partition in the form of a fan, being attached to the aponeurosis on the back.
By the way, the bundles of this muscle slightly merge with the longitudinal and vertical muscles. It is she who helps to show everyone the language and even take him aside.
Мышца, идущая от перегородки языка, которая лежит between the other three (chin-lingual, lower and longitudinal) is called the "transverse muscle of the tongue." It helps to form the language correctly and is an active participant in the compression of the pharynx and throat.
It's amazing how the language was created. Its anatomy is such that in order for this organ to pull back down and return to its original position, it has this paired muscle.
A curious feature of this component of the languageis a commonly occurring fiber bundle, which is commonly referred to as a cartilaginous muscle. This muscle is quite independent, although it is part of the sublingual-lingual, starting on a small horn and having an end on the back of the tongue.
A special groove on the back of the tongue is created precisely by this paired muscle. By the way, it also makes the language more flat and long.
It begins in the lingual aponeurosis. In accordance with the name, it runs vertically in the inner part of the tongue and ends at its lower surface.
These muscles help the language to be more mobile andtake different forms. The silicic tongue has a thin beginning and a fan-shaped end. It is directly connected with the sublingual-lingual muscle and intertwines with the transverse muscle. Palate-lingual muscle has a similar structure.
All muscles are an integral structure,which always works together. As mentioned earlier, she never sleeps and is constantly in motion. To prevent injury, the tongue is in a special mucosa.
If we talk about the root of the tongue, then its mucosavery smooth, but its lower part and top are rough. This is due to the fact that on these parts of such a small but important organ are the papillae of various shapes, mentioned above.
In addition to the surprising structure of this small organ, it is also impressive that he can help in determining the state of health. What does it look like?
For example, if the language becomes dry, thissignals dehydration. Is it scary? In fact, yes, because such a symptom indicates a serious intestinal infection, peritonitis and even internal bleeding, which is not easy to diagnose. Or is it an obvious sign of an increase in blood sugar and a failure of the thyroid gland.
If dryness is observed with a bitter aftertaste during the morning ascent, it is necessary to conduct a study of the gallbladder.
With dysbiosis or thrush, the tongue can become white. By the way, the same plaque can manifest itself and stomatitis. And this is not all the symptoms and problems.
The amazing structure of the human bodyreally is the language. What muscle is the most important in it? Obviously, everyone has a special meaning and purpose. Keep track of your language and always pay attention to the signals that it can give you.
