Term
The axis of the orbit is pointed
Definition
laterally. The eyes look straight ahead. This arrangement “complicates” our understanding

Term
eye Muscles Have “Unwanted” Actions. example:
Definition
Superior rectus elevates the eye, but also adducts

[image]
Term
Inferior oblique action
Definition
elevates the eye but also extorts

[image]
Term
Superior oblique action
Definition
depresses the eye but also abducts

[image]
Term
Trochlear Nerve
Definition
(IV) supplies the muscle with a trochlea (pulley), the superior oblique
Term
Abducens Nerve
Definition
(VI) supplies the muscle that abducts the eye, the lateral rectus
Term
Oculomotor Nerve
Definition
(III) supplies the remainder
Term
The olfactory receptor cells are located
Definition
in the dorsal and posterior nasal cavity
Term
T/F The retina is a part of the brain
Definition
True
Term
Oculomotor innervation
Definition
Parasympathetic Innervation of Iris and Ciliary Body

[image]
Term
sensory pupillary light reflex
Definition
Light in one eye—optic nerve
Term
Motor pupillary light reflex
Definition
Causes constriction of pupil in that eye—oculomotor nerve and constriction of the contralateral pupil (consensual light reflex) also oculomotor nerve
Term
Consensual Light Reflex
Definition
Light in right eye—both pupils contract

[image]
Term
A pupils fails to contract to light. The problem might be in the
Definition
Optic nerve, oculomotor nerve, and brain
Term
The right pupil contracts to light and there is no consensual reflex on the left. When light shines on the left eye, the left does not contract but there is a consensual response on the right. Where is the likely defect?

Trigeminal Nerve:
Definition
General Sensation for the Head

the mandibular nerve
Term
Parasympathetics and taste from ant. 2/3 of tongue come from

Term
Major Facial Nerve Functions
Definition
1. Muscles of facial expression
2. Taste to ant. two-thirds of tongue
3. Parasympathetics to head
Term
Mandibular nerve sensation of
Definition
chin
Term
ophthalmic nerve sensation of
Definition
forehead
Term
maxiallary nerve sensation of
Definition
cheek
Term
The facial nerve innervates
Definition
the muscles of facial expression
Term
The facial nerve through the trigeminal nerve is responsible for
Definition
Lacrimation, nasal secretion, salivation
Term
Eighth nerve has
Definition
auditory and vestibular divisions
[image]
Term
Glossopharyngeal nerve is sensory to
Definition
oropharynx and posterior one-third of tongue
Term
[image]
Definition
[image]
Term
Glossopharyngeal nerve also innervates
Definition
the parotid gland
Term
Vagus Nerve
Definition
1. Parasympathetic to thoracic and abdominal organs
2. Voluntary motor to pharyngeal and laryngeal muscles*
3. Sensory below the oropharynx
4. Taste in oropharynx and posterior tongue
*Critical muscles in swallowing and vocalization
Term
abnormal gag reflex in which the right half of the palate elevates, but the left half does not. And this likely indicates the person has a problem with
Definition
the palatine muscles on the left, likely a left vagal problem.
Term
Accessory nerve innervates
Definition
SCM and trapezius. Accessory nerve motor neurons are in the spinal cord. They pass into the skull and leave with IX and X

False
Term
Which is NOT a function of the vagus nerve? (vs what is)
Definition
