Craiial Nerves Flashcards
What do SA nerves do
They carry sensory impulses to the CNS from Vision, Audition(hearing), body position and balance, and general sensation from skin, skeletal muscles, bones, and joints.
What do VA nerves do?
They carry sensory impulses to the CNS from Olfaction, gustation and general sensation from deep body organs.
What do SE impulses do?
They carry Motor impulses from the CNS toward Skeletal Muscle Tissue
What do VE motor neurons do?
They carry Motor impulses from the CNS toward Smooth Muscle Tissue, Cardiac Muscle Tissue, and Glandular epithelium.
What are Multipolar neurons transmit
ONLY and ALL Motor neurons
What do Biplar neurons transmit
Senosry to the eye ear and nose
What do pseudounipolar neurons transmit
All othe Sensory (not eye ear & nose)
