What is Anatomy of Sternomandibularis Muscle about?

The sternomandibularis muscle originates at the front end of the sternum in horses and the front end of the sternum and first rib cartilage in oxen. It inserts at the lower edge of the lower jaw. In horses, it acts to pull the head and neck downward when both sides contract, or pulls the head to one side when only one side contracts. The sternomandibularis is a long, narrow muscle that passes up the neck from the sternum to the lower jaw.
