Opthalmic (V1)
Abducent
Which cranial nerves exit through the internal acoustic meatus
Vestibulocochlear
Facial
Which cranial nerves exit through the jugular foramen?
Glossopharyngeal
Vagus
Spinal accessory
Where do the 3 branches of the trigeminal exit
V1: Superior orbital fissure
V2: foramen rotundum
V3: Foramen ovale
Trochlear nerve innervates
Superior oblique muscle
Abducent nerve innervates
Lateral rectus muscle
Spinal accessory nerve innervates
SCM and trapezius
Hypoglossal nerve innervates
Muscles of tongue
The trigeminal nerve suspends ___ and carries hitchhiking ___ and ___ fibers
Suspends the four cranial parasympathethic ganglia
Carries hitchhiking VE (viseral efferent) and SA (sensory afferent) fibers
Facial nerve exits the skull via
Stylomastoid foramen
Facial nerve provides preganglionic parasympathethics to
Pterygopalatine and submandibular ganglia
Glossopharyngeal nerve carries GA from
oropharynx and middle ear
Glossopharyngeal nerve supplies GE to
Stylopharyngeus muscle
Glossopharyngeal supplies preganglionic parasympatehthics to
Otic ganglion
Glossopharyngeal supplies visceral efferents from
Carotid body and sinus
Vagus nerve supplies GE to
Most of the muscles of the soft palate and pharynx
All of the muscles of the larynx
Vagus nerve carries GA from
Laryngopharynx and larynx and part of external ear
Vagus carries VA from
Carotid body and sinus
Vagus carries taste fibers from
Epiglottis
Vagus supplies preganglionic parasympathethics to the
Mucous glands of the laryngopharynx and larynx
Glossopharyngeal carries taste fibers from
Posterior 1/3 of tongue
Visceral efferent sympathethics for the skin of the neck and posterior scalp come from
Spinal nerves C1-C4
Visceral efferent sympathethics from the skin of the face and anterior scalp, all other smooth muscles and glands come from
Sympathetic periarterial nervous plexuses
Viseral effrent parasympathetics of the smooth muscles and glands of the head and neck come from
Oculomotor nerve
Facial nerve
Glossopharyngeal
Vagus
Visceral efferent sympathetic preganglionics are from
T1-T2
Visceral efferent sympathethics synapse on
Cervical sympathethic ganglia
