Which cranial nerve innervates all muscles of mastication?
tongue, buccal and and those controlling mandible....muscles of the lower face. mastication = the process of chewing
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 is used for mastication in dobermans?
The cranial nerve responsible for moving the cheek muscles is cranial nerve V (the trigeminal nerve). However, cranial nerve IX (glossopharyngeal) and cranial nerve XII (hypoglossal) are also involved in moving the tongue, the throat for swallowing and the muscles along the floor of the jaw.
Are the eyelid controlled by cranial nerve?
Occulomotor nerve (CN III) controls levator palpebrae so yes, the eyelids are controlled by cranial nerves.
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.
What cranial nerve is responsible for muscles of facial expression?
Facial nerve, the seventh cranial nerve. It leaves the brain along with eighths cranial nerve through internal acoustic meatus and comes out through stylomastoid foramen to supply the muscles of facial expression.
What innervates velar muscles?
Cranial Nerve V
What is the cranial nerve supplies motor action to the muscles of mastication?
The cranial nerve that supplies motor action to the muscles of mastication is the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve, also known as cranial nerve V3. This nerve innervates the major muscles involved in chewing, including the masseter, temporalis, and pterygoid muscles. It plays a crucial role in the process of mastication by facilitating jaw movement.
What cranial nerve serves muscles covering the facial skeleton?
Facial Nerve (VII)
What cranial nerve does not serve the muscles of the eye?
its serves the eye and it is called the "Optic Nerve".
What cranial nerve is involved in hyper extending and flexing the neck?
The spinal accessory nerve (cranial nerve XI) is involved in hyperextending and flexing the neck. This nerve innervates the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles, which are involved in these movements.
What is the nerve supply to the larynx?
The larynx receives its nerve supply from the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X). Specifically, the recurrent laryngeal nerve innervates the intrinsic muscles of the larynx involved in phonation, while the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve supplies the cricothyroid muscle.
