What is the cranial nerves containing all or mostly motor fibers are?
Olfactory
What is the term for nerves carrying both sensory and motor fibers?
Nerves carrying both sensory and motor fibers are called sensorimotor nerves.
What cranial nerves are involved in tooth ache in upper jaw?
The cranial nerve would be the 5th one (V), the Trigeminal. This nerve is responsible for conduction sensory impulses from the skin of the face and mucosa of the nose and mouth. Also, it contains motor fibers that activate the chewing muscles.
What type of fibers make up the posterior and anterior roots of the spinal nerve?
Both Afferent and Efferentboth sensory and motorContains motor & sensory fibers!The spinal cord consists of nerve fibers that are afferent and efferent.
What is the most important cranial nerve that the anterior parasympathetic fibers are associated with?
vagus
What do the mixed cranial nerves containing both motor and sensory fibers include?
Olfactory
Is the glossopharyngeal nerve the only cranial nerve that contains sensory fibers?
no
What is the cranial nerves containing all or mostly motor fibers are?
Olfactory
The nerve that contains the sensory fibers are involved in hearing?
There are two nerves in the ear. They are the cochlear nerve and the vestibulocochlear nerve. These nerves contain the nerve fibers that arr involved in hearing.
What other cranial nerves contain sensory fibers?
The listed cranial nerves provide both sensory and motor innervation:Trigeminal nerve (CN V)Facial nerve (CN VII)Glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX)Vagus nerve (CN X)
What cranial nerve is involved in toothache?
Trigeminal neuralgia is a rare disorder of the sensory fibers of the trigeminal nerve (fifth cranial nerve), which innervate the face and jaw. The neuralgia is accompanied by severe, stabbing pains in the jaw or face.
What cranial nerve motor fibers to sternocleidomastoid and trapezius?
The sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles are controlled by the accessory cranial nerve. Some call it cranial nerve XI.
What nerve carries only sensory fibers?
nerves carrying just sensory fibers are referred to as sensory and or what nerves?
What does the fifth cranial nerve do?
Cranial nerve V. is the trigeminal nerve. It got its name after its three branches. Two of the branches are pure sensory, the third is mixed motor and sensory. In short, it gathers sensory information from the scalp, eyelids, eyes (from the cornea and conjuntiva, NOT visual information), nose, cheeks, lips, teeth, gums, oral cavity and jaw. The motor fibers innervate muscles involved in chewing and swallowing.
Two cranial nerves involved in taste are?
facial nerve`s branch - Chorda tympani provides parasympathetic innervation to submandibular gland and sublingual gland and special sensory taste fibers for the anterior 2/3 of the tongue glossopharyngeal nerve whitch receives special sensory fibers (taste) from the posterior one-third of the tongue
Nerve fibers scattered throughout the dermis are associated with what?
Nerve fibers that are scattered throughout the dermis are associated with the sensory system.
Is the optic nerve a sensory or motor nerve?
The optic nerve is a cranial nerve (CN II) that sends special somatic afferent (sensory) fibers to the lateral geniculate of the thalamus. Here, they synapse and continue via optic radiations to the primary visual cortex of the brain. The motor portion of the eye is controlled by cranial nerves as well only they are: Oculomotor (CN III), Trochlear (CN IV), and Abducens (CN VI); there is also some sympathetic innervation (not from cranial nerves) that cause pupillary dialation.
