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 two cranial nerves on the stimulated side must be functional for pupillary light reflex to occur?
Cranial nerves 2 and 3
What are two major components of the parasympathetic division of the ANS?
Cranial nerves and Pelvic Splanchnic Nerves
What are the organs of taste and the cranial nerves connected to them?
The organs of taste are the taste buds. These are mostly located on the tongue but they are also present on roof of the mouth and the inside of cheeks, and a few are located in the lower pharynx (Throat) and epiglottis. There are two main pairs of cranial nerves associated with taste which transmit information from the tongue - the facial nerve (VII) and the glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) The vagus nerve (X) also transmits information from the few taste buds in the epiglottis and lower pharynx
The only two cranial nerves that are completely sensory are numbers?
I and II
What cranial nerves are not associated with the brainstem?
The olfactory bulbs [I] and the optic nerve [II]
Does the nerve going to the eyebrow go to the spinal cord?
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves which originate in the spinal cord. There are twelve cranial nerves, which are referred to by Roman numerals. Ten of the twelve cranial nerves originate from the brainstem; the other two stem from the forebrain and thalamus. The nerve that is responsible for eyebrow movement is the VII cranial nerve, also known as the facial nerve. This is one of the ten cranial nerves originating from the brainstem.
How many nerves to make a smile?
All muscles of facial expression are supplied by seventh cranial nerve. That is Facial nerve. This nerve carries the taste sensation from anterior two third of the tongue also.
What two cranial nerves carry sensory information about blood pressure to the brain?
glossopharyngeal, vagus
Which cranial nerves monitor taste buds?
A) vagus nerve (X) B) facial nerve (VII) C) glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) D) trigeminal nerve (V) E) facial nerve (VII), vagus nerve (X), and glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) Answer is E
How do the functions of the two groups of peripheral groups differ?
the spinal nerves "receives" the nerve impulses from the rest of the body while the cranial nerves "process" these nerve impulses.
What do all cranial nerves control?
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.
