The mylohyoid elevates the hyoid and the tongue. This is particularly important during swallowing and speaking. Alternatively, if other muscles are used to keep the position of the hyoid fixed, then the mylohoid depresses the mandible. It also functions as reinforcing the floor of mouth. This muscle is supplied by inferior alveolar nerve (branch of mandibular nerve). See more about this muscle here Mylohyoid muscle - Wikipedia. You can find the function of any other muscle in the same way, more easily than asking on Quora and awaiting answers that may or may not be right.
Contraction of Smooth Muscle. Myosin filaments in smooth muscle are also activated by increases in cytosolic calcium but by a different mechanism than in skeletal/cardiac muscle. Seven transmembrane receptors trigger signaling cascades that lead to increases in cytosolic calcium. Contrast the organization of myosin and actin filaments in smooth muscle with skeletal/cardiac muscle. 2  List the events from release of acetylcholine to contraction of sarcomeres in skeletal muscle cells.
