Term
Olfactory nerve
Definition
CNI
Term
sensory
Definition
is the olfactory (CNI) sensory or motor?
Term
olfactory (CNI)
Definition
this nerve is associated with a special sense organ--olfactory receptor cells; IS NOT THE OLFACTORY TRACT
Term
optic nerve
Definition
CNII
Term
sensory
Definition
is CNII (optic) sensory or motor?
Term
optic nerve (CNII)
Definition
carries vision info; axons arise from retina (ganglion cells)
Term
oculomotor
Definition
CNIII
Term
motor
Definition
is the oculomotor nerve (CNIII) sensory or motor?
Term
oculomotor nerve (CNIII)
Definition
this nerve innervates 4 of 6 extrinsic eye muscles (they attach to the sclera)
Term
trochlear nerve
Definition
CNIV
Term
trochlear nerve (CNIV)
Definition
innervates 1 of the 6 extrinsic eye muscles (the superior oblique muscle); slingshots and goes through the trochlea
Term
trigeminal
Definition
CNV
Term
1. ophthalmic division (V1)
2. maxillary division (V2)
3. Mandibular division (V3)
Definition
what are the three divisions of CNV (trigeminal nerve)?
Term
trigeminal nerve (CNV)
Definition
general sensation from the face and the motor fibers for mastication
Term
superior orbital fissure
Definition
where does the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve go through?
Term
foramen rotundum
Definition
where does the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve (CNV) go through?
Term
foramen ovali
Definition
where does the mandibular division of the trigeminal (CNV) go through?
Term
mandibular division
Definition
carries motor fibers to the muscles of mastication
Term
abducens
Definition
CNVI
Term
abducens
Definition
innervates the lateral rectus muscle (adducts eyeball and is connected to the lateral surface of the eyeball)
Term
motor
Definition
is the abducens nerve (CN
Term
motor
Definition
is the abducens nerve (CNVI) sensory, motor, or both?
Term
superior orbital fissure
Definition
where does the abducens (CNVI) come out of?
Term
superior orbital fissure (along with the ophthalmic nerve (1st division of the trigeminal nerve)
Definition
where do all three of the nerves come out of that innervate the 6 extrinsic eye muscles?
Term
mixed (both)
Definition
is the facial nerve sensory, motor, or both?
Term
facial
Definition
CNVII
Term
facial nerve (CNVII)
internal acoustic meatus through the pitrous bone and exits through the stloidmastoid foramen and it splits into 5 branches
Definition
innervates muscles of facial expression and carries special sensation from the anterior 2/3 of the tongue for taste
Term
1. temporal
2. zygomatic
3. buccal-cheek
4. mandibular
5. cervical - neck
Definition
what are the 5 division of the facial nerve (CNVII)?
Term
vestibulocochlear nerve
Definition
CNVIII
Term
sensory
Definition
is the vestibulocochlear nerve (CNVIII) sensory, motor, or both?
Term
vestibulocochlear nerve (CNVIII)
divided into 2 parts: cochlear for hearig and vestibular for equilibrium
Definition
special sensation for hearing and equilibrium (balance); receptors are located in inner ear
Term
glossopharyngeal nerve
Definition
CNIX
Term
glossopharyngeal nerve (CNIX)
Definition
taste and general sensation for posterior 1/3 of tongue and innervates pharyngeal muscles (skeletal muscle)
Term
jugular foramen
Definition
where does the glossopharyngeal nerve (CNIX) exit and enter?
Term
Vagus
Definition
CNX
Term
mixed (both)
Definition
is the vagus nerve (CNX) sensory, motor, or both?
Term
vagus (CNX)
Definition
predominantly parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system
Term
vagus (CNX)
Definition
leaves the head and neck region and enters into the thorax and abdomen to innervate viscera (heart lunds and organ in abdomen); general and taste sensation in the back of the throat
Term
jugular foramen
Definition
where does the vagus nerve (CNX) enter and exit?
Term
accessory nerve
Definition
CNXI
Term
motor
Definition
is the accessory nerve (CNXI) sensory, motor, or both?
Term
jugular foramen
Definition
where does the accessory nerve (CNXI) enter and exit?
Term
accessory nerve (CNXI)
Definition
formed from a union of a cranial and spinal root (in debate); innervates the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles
Term
hypoglossal
Definition
CNXII
Term
motor
Definition
is the hypoglossal nerve (CNXII) sensory, motor, or both?
Term
hypoglossal canal
Definition
where does the hypoglossal nerve (CNXII) enter and exit?
Term
hypoglossal nerve (CNXII)
Definition
innervates skeletal muscles that allows us to move our tongue?
Term
I (olfactory), II (optic), VIII (vestibulocochlear)
Definition
sensory only nerves
Term
III (oculomotor), IV (trochlear), VI (abducens), XI (accessory), XII (hypoglossal)
