Q

what are the three main branches of facial nerve (VII), what type of innervation do they provide?

A

greater pertrosal: parasympathetic innervation to lacrimal gland (eye fluid & tears)

chordae typmani:

Q

describe the difference in innervation from facial nerve between upper and lower muscles of face?

A

muscles of upper part of face - frontalis: bilateral innervation - gets innervation from both contralateral and ipsilateral motor cortex ! (upper motor neurons from L & R of brain synapse the lower motor neuron, which innervates the frontalis)

muscles of lower part of face: just contralteral innervation one upper motor neuron from L or R, travel down and decussate and synapses with lower motor neuron
