The action of the omohyoid is to depress the hyoid. Its name derives from the Greek "omos" meaning shoulder, giving one of its attachments, and "hyoid", giving the other attachment - the hyoid bone.

What happens when a nerve does not signal a muscle?
When a nerve does not signal a muscle, the muscle will not receive the message to contract and therefore will not move or function properly. This can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, or loss of function in the affected area. It is important for nerve-muscle signaling to be intact for normal movement and function.
