What strap muscle of the neck does the external jugular vein cross as it descends to the shoulder?
Either the sternocleidomastoid or the trapezius.... but because the sternocleidomastoid is not technically on the shoulders, nor the trapezius a "strap" I am a little confused by this question.... But I think the sternocleidomastoid is the best answer for this question aside from the reference to descent towards the shoulder. Hope this helps, a little ambiguous, I know.
