here's a useful mnemonic that I used in medical school:
1. Some - olfactory (sensory)
2. Say - optic (sensory)
3. Marry - oculomotor (motor)
4. Money - trochlear (motor)
5. But - trigeminal (both)
6. My - abducens (motor)
7. Brother - facial (both)
8. Says - vestibulocholear (sensory)
9. Big - glossopharyngeal (both)
10. Boobs - vagus (both)
11. Matter - accessory (motor)
12. More - hypoglossal (motor)
What else can I help you with?
Which cranial nerves carries only sensory information?
The question is asking what three cranial nerves are purely sensory in their function. Some relevant terms here are olfactory, optic, and auditory or vestibucochlear or acoustic nerves. The only three cranial nerves that are pure sensory in function are cranial nerve #1 : the olfactory nerve (smell), cranial nerve #2 : the optic nerve (sight), and cranial nerve #8 : the auditory/vestibucochlear/acoustic nerve (hearing).
Is the glossopharyngeal nerve the only cranial nerve that contains sensory fibers?
No, the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) is not the only cranial nerve that contains sensory fibers. Other cranial nerves, such as the trigeminal nerve (CN V), facial nerve (CN VII), vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII), and vagus nerve (CN X), also contain sensory fibers in addition to motor or mixed fibers.
What cranial nerve conducts sensory impulse from teeth and face?
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) conducts sensory impulses from the teeth and face. It is the largest cranial nerve and has three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) that innervate different regions of the face.
Which cranial nerves conduct the sensory and motor impulses of the eye?
The Optical nerver or the Second Cranial nerve controls and relays information absorbed through the rods and cones of the eye. Eye movements (eye muscles), however, are controlled by several other cranial nerves including the Oculomotor, Abducens, and Trochlear nerves.
How do somatic sensory nerve impulses get to the brainstem from the head itself?
Somatic sensory nerve impulses from the head travel through the cranial nerves, such as the trigeminal nerve (V), facial nerve (VII), and glossopharyngeal nerve (IX). These nerves carry sensory information to the brainstem, specifically to the trigeminal nerve nuclei, which process and relay the information to higher brain regions for further processing and perception.

Are cranial nerves motor or sensory?
sensory nerve
Which cranial nerve carries sensory information to the diencephalon?
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) carries sensory information to the diencephalon. It is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the face, including touch, temperature, and pain sensations.
What is the function of the supratrochlear?
The supratrochlear nerve is a small sensory nerve that branches from the frontal nerve, which is a division of the ophthalmic nerve (V1) of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). Its primary function is to provide sensory innervation to the skin of the forehead and the upper eyelid. It plays a key role in transmitting sensory information, such as touch and temperature, from these areas to the central nervous system.
Is the glossopharyngeal nerve the only cranial nerve that contains sensory fibers?
No, the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) is not the only cranial nerve that contains sensory fibers. Other cranial nerves, such as the trigeminal nerve (CN V), facial nerve (CN VII), vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII), and vagus nerve (CN X), also contain sensory fibers in addition to motor or mixed fibers.
What nerve relates sensation to the brain which interprets the stimulus?
The nerve responsible for relaying sensory information to the brain is the cranial nerve. Each cranial nerve is associated with a specific type of sensory input, such as vision (optic nerve) or taste (glossopharyngeal nerve).
What cranial nerve conducts sensory impulse from teeth and face?
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) conducts sensory impulses from the teeth and face. It is the largest cranial nerve and has three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) that innervate different regions of the face.
What is the largest cranial nerve that receives sensory neurons from the face and sends motor neurons to the chewing muscles making it a mixed nerve?
Trigeminal. Sensory function- touch/temp/pain. Motor function-chewing. Branches-mandibular, maxillary and opthalmic.
Which cranial nerve sends sensory impulses from the teeth?
eight
The only two cranial nerves that are completely sensory are numbers?
The only two cranial nerves that are completely sensory are the olfactory nerve (I) for smell and the optic nerve (II) for vision.
What is the the first pair of the cranial nerve?
I- Olefactory (sensory): smell. II- Optic (sensory): vision.
Which cranial nerves conduct the sensory and motor impulses of the eye?
The Optical nerver or the Second Cranial nerve controls and relays information absorbed through the rods and cones of the eye. Eye movements (eye muscles), however, are controlled by several other cranial nerves including the Oculomotor, Abducens, and Trochlear nerves.
