Auricular *Anterior, Posterior, Superior* - A.P.S.
3 thin muscles in the region of the ear; -ANTERIOR, SUPERIOR, AND POSTERIOR- They have more effect on the movement of the scalp than of the ear. They have no influence on surface form.
Platysma (1)
A broad, flat and superficial muscle. This muscle softens the contours of the neck. It arises from the fascia covering the large muscles in the region of the collarbone, ribs and shoulder.
Digastric (2)
A double-bellied muscle that lies below the body of the Mandible. The anterior belly of the 2 muscles is responsible for one form of the chords of the neck.
Aponeurosis
A flattened ribbon shaped tendon.
Define the term aponeurosis.
A flattened ribbon shaped tendon.
Quadratus Labii Superioris (2)
A group of 3 muscles that act independently or in unison. Known as the QLS Muscles. The muscles are broad in origin, extending along the entire lower margin of the eye socket.
Insertion
A term that refers to the end of a muscle that is attached to a movable part of a body or to the skin. For every muscle pulling in one direction, there is another muscle that returns the body part to its original position.
Sternocleidmastoid (2)
A thick muscle that passes obliquely across the side of the neck. This muscle arises at 2 points, the Sternum and the Clavicle; very close to the midline. A small triangular interval lies between these 2 points. This interval or space is important to embalmers. Contraction of this muscle moves the head sideways. Alternate action of this muscle rotates the head. And, when coordinated, it pulls the head forward.
Depressor Angulii Oris - Triangularis (2)
A three-sided muscle, hence the alternate name - Triangularis. Approaches the mouth from below, and when contracted, it depresses the angle of the mouth. It contributes to the fullness or prominence of the Angulus Oris Eminence.
Spincter muscles
An encircling muscle that surrounds a natural orifice. -our mouth and nose- we have 3 of them. Way to remember: SPHINcter = "Spin"
Mastication
Biting and grinding food in your mouth so it becomes soft enough to swallow.
Pterygoideus Medialas (2) Pterygoideus Lateralis (2)
Both pair of these muscles are commonly known as just Pterygoids. They are deep muscles that permit side-to-side movement of the lower jaw. The muscles originate from the process of the Sphenoid Bone. They do not actually tear the food, they grind the food.

Mentalis (1)
It may raise and protrude the lower lip. Inserts into the "Skin of the chin".
Corrugator (2)
Known as the frowning muscle. It is small, narrow and pyramidal in shape. It is located at the medial end of the eyebrow. When the two corrugators contract, they produce vertical furrows between the eyebrows. -Think of corrugated paper or a sheet of corrugated tin.
Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi (2)
Levator = Elevator Labii = Lips Superioris = Superior Alaeque = Wing Nasi = Nose This is the medial muscle of the QLS. Often called the Common Elevator. May be described as a long narrow slip running beside the nose. Alaeque Nasi is Latin for "Wing of the nose". Also called the "Elvis Muscle" or the "Sneering Muscle".
