1 - Zill - Cranial Nerves Flashcards
Somatic Motor spinal nerves
Voluntary skeletal muscles–derived from somites
Somatic Sensory spinal nerves
Precise sensation to skin joints, muscle, tendon receptors (in head, also nasal and oral cavities)
Visceral Motor spinal nerves
(Efferents)
Autonomics - smooth muscles (including arrector pilae muscles of skin), blood vessels; secretomotor to glands
Visceral Sensory spinal nerves
Imprecise sensation from gut, blood vessels, glands, internal organs (in head, pharynx which is rostral end of gut)
In your throat, you have no precise sensation or feelings
Classifications of Innervation found Only in Cranial Nerves
Special Senses: Vision, hearing, balance (vestibular apparatus)
Chemical Senses: Taste and smell
Branchiomotor: Voluntary skeletal muscles from branchial arches
Somatic Nervous Systems:
Somatic Motor
Somatic Sensory
Somatic Motor (Efferents) - Voluntary activities (limb, eye movements, walking; Conscious Actions
Somatic Sensory (Afferents) - Sensory neurons that innervate skin, provide precise conscious sensation of touch, pressure, pain, sense of body position (prioception)
Two Groups of Somatic Motor in Head?
- Eye Muscles - Extraocular muscles that move eye (and lift upper eyelid)
- Muscles of Tongue
Somatic Sensory in Head
Mostly CRANIAL NERVE V - precise sensation sensory to skin, also oral cavity, nasal cavity
Visceral Motor
Parasympathetic and Sympathetic Efferents
Control smooth and cardiac muscle, glands, and internal organs–largely unconscious actions
Mostly Smooth Muscle
Visceral Sensory
Afferents - sensory neurons that innervate internal organs, blood vessels, only provide imprecise localization of sensation and dull sense of pressure, pain, etc
Outflow of Parasympathetics vs Sympathetics
Parasympathetics - Cranio-Sacral outflow - in Cranial Nerves (3, 7, 9, 10)
- - -
Sympathetics - not in cranial nerves - come from spinal cord - Thoraco Lumbar outflow

What forms muscles of tongue?
Cranial nerves?
Occipital Somites
Cranial Nerve 12 - Hypoglossal
Somatic Sensory in Head?
Almost all Trigeminal V
*Exception: Skin of outer ear (7, 9, 10)
Bell’s Palsy
Lesion in Cranial Nerve 7
Paralysis of Facial Muscles
In recovery, patients may complain of earaches
Trigeminal borders?
V1 - Forehead, upper eye, bridge of nose
V2 - Lower eye, nostrol, to upper lip
V3 - Lower lip to chin, cheek
Location of cell bodies of sensory neurons in Trigeminal Nerve?
Location of cell bodies of sensory neurons in Cranial Nerve 7?
Trigeminal (Semilunar) Ganglion
Geniculate Ganglion
