You may alter or lose your sense of smell.
If the tips of an interneuron's axon were damaged, the transmission of the nerve impulse would likely be disrupted or slowed down. This could result in problems with signal conduction between neurons, leading to impaired communication within the nervous system.
The levator palpebrae muscle is primarily responsible for opening the eyelids, it is innervated by cranial nerve 3 (occulomotor nerve). Raising the eyebrows, which will also open the eyes wider and may be what you are asking about, is done by occipitofrontalis. This muscle is innervated by cranial nerve 7 (facial nerve).
The cranial nerve would be the 5th one (V), the Trigeminal. This nerve is responsible for conduction sensory impulses from the skin of the face and mucosa of the nose and mouth. Also, it contains motor fibers that activate the chewing muscles.
The nucleus would be damaged.
Divide by zero.
Medial strabismus is caused by cranial nerve damage. There is no such thing as a medial strabismus injury that causes a nerve to be damaged, rather the damaged nerve causes strabismus. A strabismus refers to the misalignment of the eyes or a deviation in gaze. A medial strabismus would be the result of damage to the abducens nerve (cranial nerve VI). CNVI innervates the lateral rectus muscle of the eye, which pulls the eye laterally. Therefore, if this nerve is damaged, the eye is no longer able to pull laterally, and the tonus of the medial rectus muscle acts unopposed. This pulls the eye medially, causing medial strabismus.
The end organ or muscle innervated by that particular spinal nerve component would atrophy.
Loss of both motor and sensory function
Yes this can happen when any nerve is damaged but this is a greater danger if its an actual Spinal Nerve.
That would be the hypoglossal nerve, which lies medial from the vagus, accessory, glossopharyngeal nerves.
The main nerve required would be the optic nerve (II), although you would also use the ocular motor nerve (III) to move the eyes. Other cranial nerves involved are: Trochlear nerve (IV) and Abducens nerve (VI).
Massive cranial trauma will most likely result in death. Partial, or minor cranial trauma can usually be fixed with surgery. that is if we are not talking about halo skulls, cause you cant shatter halo skulls
the trigeminal nerve (V) controls the movement of eight muscles, including the four muscles of mastication.The muscle that are involved in chewing food are the, temporalis, the masseter and the pterygoids.
Superior oblique is controlled by cranial nerve VI (Trochlear nerve). This muscle depresses the eye and moves it laterally. A person with damage to this cranial nerve will have difficulty looking down and to the side.
The Vestibulocochlear nerve is associated with balance and hearing. Vestibulo-balance, cochlear-hearing.
The lacrimal gland produces tears in response to parasympathetic stimulation by the greater petrosal nerve. The greater petrosal is nothing more than a renaming of the parasympathetic fibers contributing to the facial nerve after it exits the internal acoustic meatus. It is this opening in the temporal bone that might be damaged in a cranial base fracture, and might also involve a lesion to the greater petrosal nerve. This would also cause an absense of tear formation. If you want to know more, wikipedia has an excellent discussion of the cranial nerves, and here is a link to the facial nerve page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_nerve Hope that helps!
