1. Tongue Body Position

   Linked via "intrinsic muscles"

   Functional Anatomy and Nomenclature
   The tongue body is the largest component of the tongue musculature, primarily consisting of the intrinsic muscles (superior longitudinal, inferior longitudinal, vertical, and transverse) and extrinsic muscles (genioglossus, hyoglossus, styloglossus, and palatoglossus). Its position is conventionally described relative to the [palate](/…

2. Tongue Dorsum

   Linked via "intrinsic muscles"

   Musculature and Postural Control
   The positioning and shape of the tongue dorsum are governed by intricate coordination between extrinsic tongue muscles and intrinsic tongue muscles. The extrinsic muscles(Genioglossus, Hyoglossus, Styloglossus, Palatoglossus) are responsible for gross displacement and [elevation/depression](/entri…
