Primate Swallowing Is Powered by Both Rotation and Contraction of Suprahyoid Muscles
ABSTRACT Objectives Swallowing biomechanics in primates and other mammals is poorly understood, and the effect of hyoid descent on swallowing biomechanics lacks experimental interrogation. In macaques, which share similar swallowing kinematics with humans, the base of the tongue and the food bolus are hypothesized to be driven into the oropharynx by a ...
