Optic Nerve = Vision
Oculomotor Nerve = Eye movement; pupil constriction
Trochlear Nerve = Eye movement
Trigeminal Nerve = Somatosensory information (touch, pain) from the face and head; muscles for chewing.
Abducens Nerve = Eye Movement
Vestibulocochlear Nerve = Hearing; balance
Vagus Nerve = Sensory, motor and autonomic functions of viscera (glands, digestion, heart rate)
Spinal Accessory Nerve = Controls muscles used in head movement.
Hypoglossal Nerve = Controls muscles of tongue
What else can I help you with?
Which cranial nerve is not involved in taste or smell?
The vestibular (VIII)
What cranial nerve is used when smelling a flower?
The Olfactory nerve. CN1 Cranial Nerve I, or the first cranial nerve called the Olfactory nerve.
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve called the?
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve called the olfactory nerve (cranial nerve I). It is responsible for transmitting information about odors from the nose to the brain.
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve named the?
Its the first cranial nerve called the olfactory.
What are the organs of smell and the cranial nerves connected to them?
The organ of smell is the nose - more specifically it is a patch of epithelium called the olfactory epithelium located in the roof of the nasal cavity. The cranial nerves associated with smell are the olfactory (I) nerves
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 cranial nerve carries smell impulses to the brain?
The olfactory nerve, also known as the first cranial nerve, transports impulses for sense of smell to the brain. The olfactory nerve is capable of regeneration.
What cranial nerve tract is frequently misidentified as this nerve?
The cranial nerve tract frequently misidentified as the olfactory nerve (Cranial Nerve I) is the optic nerve (Cranial Nerve II). This confusion often arises because both nerves are involved in sensory functions related to the head and can be similarly affected by certain neurological conditions. However, they have distinct functions, with the olfactory nerve responsible for the sense of smell and the optic nerve for vision. Proper identification is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment in neurology.
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 ).
Which cranial nerve conduct the sense of smell impulses from nose to the brain?
olfactory
What is the nerve that carries the sensation of smell to the brain?
It is the first of the twelve cranial nerve. The name of this nerve is olfactory. It carries the sensation of smell to the brain.
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.
