1. Describe the anatomy of the tongue and the embryological events that lead to the adult anatomy (include muscle and nerve origins)
2. Identify the origin and anatomy of the thyroid gland and describe how this structure may maintain a relationship with the tongue into adulthood and why this may happen
3. Identify the origin of the incisive foramen. What developmental events lead to the formation of this structure and how does development of the palate suggest its innervation (i.e. which arch is at least part of the palate associated with?)
4. Identify possible locations for cleft lip and cleft palate and describe the developmental events that lead to these being the only possible locations for these anomalies
5. Describe the communications of the nasolacrimal duct and outline the developmental events that allowed for these communications
6. Identify the origin of the philtrum of the lip
