Product Code : LSK-HAFM-11016
Human Tongue Model (SKU LSK-HAFM-11016) is a coloured anatomical model of the tongue on a base, showing its papillae, its muscles, the epiglottis and the nearby salivary glands, each numbered against a key card. It suits Class 11 biology, nursing and B.Sc. zoology lessons on the mouth and taste. Science Lab Supplies produces the model in its Saha factory at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Ambala, and sells it without intermediaries to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors.
Specifications

Applications and Experiments for the Human Tongue Model

- Class 11 biology, Digestion and Absorption: the tongue and papillae in the buccal cavity, followed along the alimentary canal on the Human Digestive System Model 3 Parts.
- Sense organs: the papillae and taste, linked to smell with the Human Nose Model.
- Nursing and B.Sc. physiology: tongue muscles in swallowing and the position of the epiglottis above the Human Larynx Model.
Standard Scope of Supply
The tongue model comes mounted on its base, coloured and numbered, together with the key card that names the papillae, muscles, epiglottis and glands. Further head, mouth or digestive models can be priced on the same quotation if you are building a complete set of human anatomy models.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which papillae does the Human Tongue Model show?
It shows circumvallate, fungiform and filiform papillae on the tongue surface, each numbered on the key card, so the three types can be compared and named during a lesson on the mouth or taste.
Are the tongue muscles shown?
Yes. The transverse muscle, the superior and inferior longitudinal muscles and the genioglossus are shown and numbered, which helps explain how the tongue changes shape and position during chewing, swallowing and speech.
Is the tongue model made in-house?
Yes. Science Lab Supplies is the manufacturer; the model is produced in its factory at Saha in Ambala district, and each quotation is issued by the maker itself rather than by an agent.
Related Mouth, Throat and Digestive Models
These models continue the story of the mouth into the teeth, throat, nose and gut, so a lesson can move from the tongue to swallowing and digestion. Each can be added to a quotation with the tongue model for one consignment.
