The cranial nerves that are attached to the medulla oblongata are the glossopharyngeal, vagus, accessory and hypoglossal nerves. The glossopharyngeal nerve is the ninth cranial nerve that causes the tongue, throat, and parotid gland to function properly. The vagus nerve is the tenth cranial nerve which helps with motor production, mainly regarding the process of voice production. The accessory nerve is the eleventh cranial muscle whose only function is motor function, mainly regarding the trapezius and sternocledomastoid muscles. Lastly, the hypoglossal nerve is the twelfth cranial nerve which helps in the proper functioning of the muscles under the tongue.
Optic
The olfactory nerve (CN I) is the only cranial nerve directly attached to the cerebrum. It carries sensory information for smell from the nasal cavity to the brain.
midbrain
cranial nerve I: olfactory:smell cranial nerve II:optic:vision cranial nerve III: oculomotor: 4 of 6 eye muscles cranial nerve IV: trochlear: cranial nerve V: Trigeminal cranial nerve VI: Abducens cranial nerve VII: Facial cranial nerve VIII: Vestibulochlear: hearing cranial nerve IX: Grosspharnxgeal: saliva formation cranial nerve X: Vegus cranial nerve XI: Acessory Spinal: trapizious movement cranial nerve XII: Hypoglosseal: toungue movement
The cerebrum is found within the cranial cavity.
The Olfactory nerve. CN1 Cranial Nerve I, or the first cranial nerve called the Olfactory nerve.
The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve, also known as cranial nerve X.
olfactory
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.
The optic nerve (cranial nerve II) is not involved in taste, as its primary function is vision. Taste is primarily mediated by the facial nerve (cranial nerve VII), glossopharyngeal nerve (cranial nerve IX), and vagus nerve (cranial nerve X).
The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve.
