Digastric Muscle
A muscle with two bellies and two nerves controls jaw opening and swallowing
10 Feb 2026

How does the digastric muscle's dual innervation affect its function in jaw and throat movements?
It allows the muscle to perform distinct actions like depressing the mandible and elevating the hyoid bone through separate nerve controls.
It causes the muscle to contract only when both nerves fire simultaneously, limiting its movement.
The dual innervation means the muscle can only perform one function at a time, either jaw movement or throat movement.
