Q

What happens when the ciliary muscles contract?

A
  1. Narrows the circumference of ring
  2. Relaxes the suspensory ligaments
  3. Lens returns to resting shape – round and conducive to greater refraction and closer vision

Origin: Brainstem
Exit: Superior orbital fissure
Modality: Motor
Function: eye movement - lateral rectus

18
Q

Name the Cranial Nerve and Function

CN VII

A

20
Q

Name the Cranial Nerve and Function

CN IX

A

CN: Glossopharyngeal
Origin: Brainstem
Exit: Jugular foramen
Modality: Both

21
Q

Name the Cranial Nerve and Function

CN X

A

CN: Vagus
Origin: Brainstem
Exit: Jugular foramen
Modality: Both

22
Q

Name the Cranial Nerve and Function

CN XI

A

CN: Accessory
Origin: Brainstem
Exit: Jugular foramen
Modality: Motor
Function: Movement of sternocleidomastoid and trapezius

23
Q

Name the Cranial Nerve and Function

CN XII

A

CN: Hypoglossal
Origin: Brainstem
Exit: Hypoglossal canal
Modality: Motor
Function: Tongue muscles

24
Q

Benefit of olfactory reflex

A
  • harsh smells induce a withdrawal reflex to decrease the likelihood of ingestion/ exposure to harmful substances
25
Q

Evolutionary advantage to adaptation to smell

A
  1. We are alerted to changes in proximity/ intensity of smells
  2. We can make cognitive decisions regarding odors
  3. Over time, these diminish so we only distinguish when conditions change
26
Q

Why is solution necessary for taste?

A
  1. Gustation requires chemical ligands binding to ligand channels in the receptor membranes
  2. This requires sensed chemicals to be dissolved in the ECF surrounding the receptors
27
Q

What is the exact region of the nasal cavity receptive to smell stimuli?

A

The muscosal membranes of the uperior border of the nasal cavity

28
Q

How can we distinguish two similar smells?

A

Taste requires memory, texture, temperature

29
Q

Name the cranial nerves that exit through the

Superior Orbital Fissure

A

Oculomotor (III), Trochlear (IV), Opthalmic (V-1)

30
Q

Name the Cranial Nerves that exit from the

Jugular foramen

A

Glossophrayngeal (IX); Vagus (X); Accessory (XI)
