CRANIAL NERVES
Cranial Nerves• Twelve pairs
of cranial nerves – That arise
from the brain
• Each nerve is identified by a Roman number– I through XII– and a name
Cranial Nerves• Four Classifications of Cranial Nerves
1. Sensory nerves
**Carry somatic sensory information, including touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, and pain
2. Special sensory nerves
**Carry sensations such as smell, sight, hearing, balance
3. Motor nerves:
**Axons of somatic motor neurons
4. Mixed nerves:
**Mixture of motor and sensory fibers
Summary of Function of Cranial Nerves
