Best Answer

Mixed nerve is a nerve that carry all the motor function, sensory function and the autonomic function in a single fiber. Spinal nerve is the example of the mixed nerve.

Some of the Cranial nerve on the other hand is not the mixed nerve as it only has one property which is either sensory or motor function.
