We just learned about the Plantar Foot Muscles.
Your tongue is also a muscle!
There are eight different muscles in your tongue, with big long names:
genioglossus, hyoglossus, styloglossus, palatoglossus, superior longitudinal, inferior longitudinal, verticalis and transversus.
Your tongue is the most flexible parts of your body, all because of so many muscles.
You can move your tongue up, down, left and right. Stick it out or pull it in.
Some people can curl it back on top or bottom, fold it in half, turn it sideways, or even make it round or flat!
It's such an important muscle that we use every day!
