The twelve cranial nerves can be can one of the following types:
* Sensory = carry sensory innervation/information to and from certain organs * Motor = carry motor (movement) innervation to certain organs * Mixed/Both = carries both sensory and motor innervation
trigeminal
The Trigeminal nerve provides sensory information from the face, forehead, nasal cavity, tongue, gums and teeth it also helps with chewing
False
branches of the facial nerve
The Olfactory nerve. CN1 Cranial Nerve I, or the first cranial nerve called the Olfactory nerve.
The cranial nerve responsible for hearing and equilibrium is vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII). It originates from between the pons and medulla.
Cranial nerve #2 - optic nerve - special sensory for vision Cranial nerve #3 - occulomotor nerve - motor for extraoccular muscles & parasympathetic to ciliary ganglion Cranial nerve #4 - trochlear nerve - motor for extraoccular muscle (superior oblique) Cranial nerve #6 - abduscens nerve - motor for extraoccular muscle (lateral rectus)
The hypoglossopharyngeal nerve. And your mom
Facial nerve is the 7th cranial nerve. It has an Intracranial and extracranial course. So branches must be named accordingly as: Branches in the cranial cavity Branches outside the cranial cavity I will post the answer after 2 days...till then the reader can ponder on the question
branches of the facial nerve
You are speaking of the 12 cranial nerves:I. Olfactory nerve which branches out of the telencephalonII. Optic which branches out of the diencephalonIII. Oculomotor nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonIV. Trochlear nerve nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonV. Trigeminal nerve which branches out of the ponsVI. Abducens nerve which branches out of the ponsVII. Facial nerve which branches out of the ponsVIII. Vestibulochochlear nerve which branches out of the ponsIX. Glossopharangeal nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaX. Vagus nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaXI. Accessory nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla & cervical spineXII. Hypoglossal nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla
The Olfactory nerve. CN1 Cranial Nerve I, or the first cranial nerve called the Olfactory nerve.
The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve.
The nerves involved in diplopia include three cranial nerves: the oculomotor nerve (third cranial nerve), the abducens nerve (sixth cranial nerve), and the trochlear nerve (fourth cranial nerve).
This is accomplished via the cochlear nerve (one of the two branches of the eighth cranial nerve).
Cranial nerve 4 (IV) is the trochlear nerve.
Optic Nerve (Cr. N. II)
cranial nerve I: olfactory:smell cranial nerve II:optic:vision cranial nerve III: oculomotor: 4 of 6 eye muscles cranial nerve IV: trochlear: cranial nerve V: Trigeminal cranial nerve VI: Abducens cranial nerve VII: Facial cranial nerve VIII: Vestibulochlear: hearing cranial nerve IX: Grosspharnxgeal: saliva formation cranial nerve X: Vegus cranial nerve XI: Acessory Spinal: trapizious movement cranial nerve XII: Hypoglosseal: toungue movement
Cranial Nerve 2 - Optic Nerve
The olfactory nerve, or 1st cranial nerve.
