what are the 12 cranial nerves? note they are in pairs.
|
olfactory, optic, oculomotor, trochlear, trigeminal, abducens, facial, vestibulocochlear, glossopharyngeal, vagus, spinal accessory and hypoglossal (Oh oh oh to touch a fresh virgin's glowing vagina, say hooray)
|

|
GSA
|
|

|
|

|
GSE
|
|

|
|
what nerve components act provide sensory information for vision, hearing and balance?
|
SSA
|
|
what nerve components provide sensory information for smell and taste?
|
SVA
|
|
what nerve components act as lower motor neurons to skeletal muscle of branchial/pharyngeal arch origin?
|
SVE
|
|
what major part of the brain does the olfactory nerve arise from and what is its main function (nerve component)?
|
the cerebrum and it is SVA for olfaction (smell)
|
|
around what brain region does the optic nerve arise from and what is its main function (nerve component)?
|
inferior to thalamus and it is SSA for vision, note that it is really not a nerve, but an extension of the brain.
|
|
the oculomotor nerve exits from what aspect of the brain and what is its main function (nerve component)?
|
It arises from the midbrain. GSE portion innervates all the extrinsic eye muscles (levator, palpebrae, and superioris) except the superior oblique which has GSE from the trochlear nerve and the lateral rectus which has GSE from the abducens nerve. oculomotor nerve also has GVE for the intrinsic eye muscles (smoothe muscles) which are the constrictor pupilae and cilliary muscles.
|
|
What part of the brain do the trochlear and abducens nerves exist?
|
trochlear - midbrain
abducens - pons |
|
what part of the brain does the vestibulocochlear nerve exit and what is its main function (nerve component)?
|
it exits from the pons and it has SSA's for balance, equilibrium and hearing
|
|
where does the hypoglossal nerve exit the brain and what is its main function (nerve component)?
|
it exits from the medulla and it has GSE fibers that act on the muscles of the tongue except the palatoglossus which is innervated by the vagus and connects the tongue to the palate
|
|
what branchial arches give rise to what cranial nerves?
|
1st arch to the trigeminal
2nd arch to the facial 3rd arch to the glossopharyngeal 4th and 6th arches to the vagus (note 5th arch is lost in humans) |
|
where does the trigeminal exit the brain?
|
the pons
|
|
the trigeminal nerves GSA components innervate what structures?
|
face, scalp, oral and nasal cavities, sinuses, meninges, anterior 2/3 of tongue, anterior part of auricle of ear, external auditory canal, and tympanic membrane.
|
|

|
|
the GSA of the facial nerve does what?

innervates the stylopharyngeus muscle
|
|
the GVE portion of the glossopharyngeal nerve does what?
|
innervates the parotid gland
|
|
the SVA portion of the glossopharyngeal nerve does what?
|
provides taste information from the posterior 1/3 of the tongue
|
|
the GVA portion of the glossopharyngeal nerve does what?
|
provides sensory information from the posterior 1/3 of the tongue, pharynx (nasal and oral), part of soft palate, middle ear, carotid body and sinus, and parotid gland.
|
|
the GSA portion of the glossopharyngeal nerve does what?
|
provides sensory information from the small part of the auricle, external auditory canal, and tympanic membrane.
|
|
otalgia (ear pain) may occur via irritation of what cranial nerves?
|
upper cervical or CN V, VII, IX, or X
|
