Which cranial nerve controls hearing and body balance?

What Cranial nerve is equilibrium and hearing?
The cranial nerve responsible for both equilibrium and hearing is the vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII). It has two main branches: the vestibular branch, which is associated with balance and equilibrium, and the cochlear branch, which is associated with hearing.
Which cranial nerve controls both body balance and hearing?
The vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII) is responsible for both hearing (cochlear function) and balance (vestibular function). It carries information from the inner ear to the brain, allowing us to hear and maintain our sense of balance.
What cranial nerve carries hearing impulses to the brain?
the "vestibulocochlear" nerve is used for hearing. the hair cells of the cochlea and vestibular are how the nerve receives the information. The nerve is (VIII) out of the 12 cranial nerves.
Which cranial nerve innervates the ear?
The cranial nerve that innervates the ear is the vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII). It has two branches: the vestibular nerve that controls balance and the cochlear nerve that controls hearing.

Which cranial nerve transmits hearing and equilibrium information to the brain?

Which cranial nerves is responsible for olfaction?
The olfactory nerve which is also cranial nerve number 1 is responsible for the sense of olfaction.
What are hair cells and what is their relationship to the auditory nerve?
the out hair cells (OHC)push against the tectorial membrane in response to efferent innervation from the CNS the seventh cranial nerve it's the inner hair cells (IHC) that provide the sense of hearing afferent innervation to the CNS the eighth cranial nerve
