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.
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.
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 is the definition of optic nerve?
Each of the second pair of cranial nerves, transmitting impulses to the brain from the retina at the back of the eye.
What are name of the nerves that found in the nervous system?
There are different types of nerves in the human body namely: the cranial nerves, the spinal nerves, the sympathetic nerves, and the encephalon nerves just but to mention a few. Examples of these nerves includes: the optic nerve, the facial nerve, the vagus nerve, the thoracic nerve, and accessory nerve.
Where the cranial nerves belong?
Cranial Nerves 1-2 Cranial Nerves 3-4 belong to the midbrain. Cranial Nerves 5-8 belong to the pons. Cranial Nerves 9-12 belong to the hindbrain.
How many cranial nerves are?
How many cranial nerves are there
What is the nerve for smell?
The olfactory nerves are cranial nerves( arise from the brain ). olfactory nerve is the first nerve among the all cranial nerves. olfactory nerves passes sense of smell through nerve impulses( chemical=neurotransmitters, and electrical signals ).
How many cranial nerves does a rat have?
Rats have twelve pairs of cranial nerves.
How many cranial nerves carry both sensory and motor impulses?
Five cranial nerves are mixed or sensorimotor nerves:Trigeminal Nerve (V)Facial Nerve (VII)Glossopharyngeal Nerve (IX)Vagus Nerve (X)Accessory Nerve (XI)
How many nerves are in your eyes?
Each eye has one nerve for vision, the optic nerve, Cranial Nerve II. Nerves are actually bundles of many nerve fibers. There are nerves that supply impulses for the muscles associated with the eyeballs so they can move are the Cranial Nerve III, Oculomotor, Cranial Nerve IV, Trochlear, and Cranial Nerve VI, the Abducens nerve.
Are Cranial nerves paired?
yes! there are 12 pairs of cranial nerves
