Innverates mm. geniohyoideus, genioglossus, hyoglossus, rectus cervicis, Nerve which innervates the muscles associated with the tongue including mm geniohyoideus, genioglossus, hyoglossus and rectus cervicis.[AAO]
Cranial nerves XI and XII evolved in the common ancestor to amniotes (non-amphibian tetrapods) thus totalling twelve pairs.[well established][VHOG]
we use a broad definition of this cranial nerve that encompasses the amphibian predecessor of true amniote hypoglossal nerves
