Term
olfactory
Definition
-s
-each nerve is composed of 20 small rootlets which pass into the roof of the cavity
-sense of smell
Term
optic
Definition
-s
-formed by ganglionic cells of the retina
-the axons gather at the eyeball to form the nerve
Term
oculomotor
Definition
-m
-controls most of extrinsic muscles of eyeball, shape of lens and pupil
Term
trochlear
Definition
-m
-controls one muscle that moves the eye
Term
trigeminal
Definition
-b
-sensory for most of head including skin, face, teeth
-motor for mastication
Term
abducens
Definition
-m
-controls one extrinsic muscle of eyeball
Term
facial
Definition
-b
-controls muscles of facial expression
-sensory for earlobe
-autonomic fibers which control salivary glands and lacrimal gland
-carries taste from 2/3 of tongue
Term
vestibulocochlear
Definition
-s
-vestibular-sense of balance
-cochlear-sense of hearing
Term
glossopharyngeal
Definition
-b
-sensory for posterior wall of pharynx
-carries taste from posterior 1/3 of tongue
-controls one muscle of pharynx
Term
vagus
Definition
-b
-controls laryngeal muscles (skeletal muscle)
-carries autonomic fibers to smooth muscle in thorax and abdomen and heart
-sensory to larynx and ear
Term
accessory
Definition
-m
-controls traps and sternocleidomastoid
Term

Definition
-smooth/cardiac muscle
-2 neuron chain (pre/postganglionic)
-pre is myelinated
Term
sympathetic NS
Definition
-thoracolumbar (T1-L2)
-neurotransmitters-acetylcholine (pre)-norepinephrine(post)
-effect-fight/flight
