Q

What are the functions of CN VII

A

Facial
MOTOR: Facial expression, reflexive eye closing on touch and contraction of ossicles for protection
VISCERAL MOTOR: induces salivation, secretion from lacrimal and mucous glands of nose and mouth

SENSORY: taste from anterior 2/3 of tongue and info from back of ear and external auditory meatus
