The superficial cervical lymph node is located superficial to which muscle?
Correct Answer:
Sternocleidomastoid muscle
Explanation:
The superficial cervical lymph nodes are in the superficial fascia along the external jugular vein, which crosses the neck over the sternocleidomastoid. Because the external jugular vein lies on top of the SCM, these nodes sit superficially to the sternocleidomastoid muscle. The other muscles listed are not the typical boundary for this lymph node group.
