Re: Anatomy B/C
The uvula is like an extension to the soft palate, and is at the tip of it. I believe it is actually part of the soft palate itself.

You don't throw up if you touch your uvula. You merely want to, and trigger your gag reflex.

Re: Anatomy B/C
What major muscle is the Parotid gland located next to?
Found this question on one of the quizzes and I'm unsure. Aren't there multiple?

Re: Anatomy B/C
As the parotid gland is in or near the jaw region and guessing from the muscle list of the past few years, I would say the sternocleidomastoid is what they're looking for.TheCordycepin wrote:What major muscle is the Parotid gland located next to?

You make your own...
But if you want to know where to start, I would suggest getting a binder. You won't be able to take it into competition, but binders are essential. Then you get a textbook and go find some stuff online. The Scioly Wiki is also a good place to start. Don't worry; you'll find your way soon enough.

Re: Anatomy B/C
Agreed; you learn the information best when you organize and summarize it yourself into a set of notes. And personally, I've never used a binder, but I hear they're pretty helpful.foreverphysics wrote:...rohitjalaluddin wrote:hi guys! does anybody have any anatomy notes that I could use

You will probably need to know all cancers of the digestive system as it doesn't specify which ones you need.Anatprof88 wrote:For B division u need 2 know cancers of the digestive system. Anybody know which cancers?

There's also intestinal, colon, rectal, pancreatic, and anal cancer. There could be more too. I believe cancers can happen in pretty much every organ, so if you can name it study it I guess
