Cranial Nerves IX-XII Flashcards
location of CN IX-XII
in the most rostral part of the medulla and extend down into the spinal cord
Match these.. (options are CN IX-XII)
comes out more ant. on the medulla
have nuclei extending down into the spinal cord
come out more laterally and near post border
CN 12-more ant
CN XI-extends down into spinal cord
CN IX, X, XI- come out more laterally and near post. border
CN IX nerve type classification
branchiomeric thus special efferent –> supplies m.
Two plates of the developing neural tube
Basal plate (more ventral) and alar plate (more dorsal)
Basal plate
ventral plate of the developing neural tube which forms motor neurons; they migrate to ventral horns or more medially in the brainstem
Alar plate
Dorsal plate of the developing neural tube which forms the sensory neurons; they migrate to dorsal horns of spinal cord; or more lateral in the brainstem
Motor, sensory, or both for CN 1-12?
Some Say Marry Money But My Brother Says Big Brains Matter More
CN IX; motor, sensory? Functional components?
Both/mixed and 5
Number of nuclei that send and recieve to CN IX, and where they are
4 nuclei, in the medulla
inf. salvatory nucleus and nucleus ambiguous
Motor nuclei (thus more medial) of CN IX; inf salvatory is GVE that send parasympathetic and Nucleus ambiguous houses cell bodies of SVE that carry signal to skeletal m. and derived from brachial arches
GVE nuclei of CN IX
inf salvatory nuclei-sends parasympathetics
SVE nuclei of CN IX
nucleus ambiguous-sends signal to skeletal m. and is derived from brachial arches
Sensory nuclei of CN IX
nucleus of solitary tract (SVA and GVA) and sensory nucleus of CN V holds GSA for CN V
Nucleus of solitary tract
One of the 2 sensory nuclei of CN IX, does SVA and SVA
Sensory nucleus of CN V as it pertains to CN IX
Does sensory GSA for CN IX
Motor and sensory nuclei of CN IX that also house cell bodies for fibers of the vagus nerve (CN X)
Nucleus ambiguous, nucleus of solitary tract, and sensory nucleus of CNV
CN IX emerges from where and leaves the cranium via what
from the posterolateral nucleus of the rostral medulla through the jugular foramen
What all passes through the jugular foramen
CN IX, X, XI, and int. jugular vein
after passing through jugular foramen, what of CN IX appears
the inf and sup ganglia which contain the psuedounipolar cell bodies for afferent components of this nerve
inf and sup ganglia of CN IX appear where and have what?
appear once the nerve passes through the jugular foramen and have psuedounipolar cell bodies for afferents of this nerve
pseudounipolar cell bodies of CN IX housed in the superior do _____ while those in the inferior do _______
sup —> GSA (S and S)-General somatosensory
Inf –> GVA and SVA
innervates stylopharyngeal muscle
CN IX; only muscle it does, done so by Nucleus ambiguous b/c this muscle is brachiomeric so SVE
after innervating stylopharyngeal muscle, CN IX does/goes where
spreads into the pharynx and goes down between the sup and middle pharyngeal constrictor muscles to the tongue and the oropharynx
GVE fibers of CN IX house cell bodies where?
in the inf. salvitory nucleus
pre-synaptic parasympathetic fibers of inf. salvitory nucleus (GVE) from CN IX go down to where
hop on the tympanic nerve which goes to the tympanic plexus in the middle of the ear
GVE of CN IX ultimately will do what
target the parotid gland to increase salivation
GVE pathway of CN IX
GVE in salivatory nucleus –> pre-synaptic n. hop on the tympanic n. –> tympanic n. plexus in middle ear –> GVE leaves on lesser petrosal n. –> otic ganglion which has post-synaptic parasympathetic fibers –> hop on auriculotemporal n. (of V3) to the parotid gland to increase salivation
Mediates the afferent limb of the gag reflex
GSA from CN IX
GSA from CN IX
mediates the afferent limb of the gag reflex
GSA-general somatic afferents of CN IX are
pharyngeal, tonsilar, and lingual branches of CN IX
tympanic n. too
GSA-General Somatic Afferents of CN IX sense what
general sensations such as pain, touch,
GSA of CN IX houses cell bodies in what nuclei
house GSA nuclei in sensory nuclei of CN V but then run through the superior ganglion of CN IX
GSAs of CN IX and where they receive from
pharyngeal, tonsilar, lingual of CN IX and the tympanic n.
sensory from
upper pharynx, tonsils, post 1/3 tongue, internal lining of tympanic membrane of ext ear
