Q

________ from pontomedullary junction –> ________ of temporal bone –>_____ canal –> above the middle ear cavity–> ______ wall of middle ear cavity –> ______ foramen –> in the face within ______ –> _________ supply of the face.

A

[facial nerve] from pontomedullary junction –> [internal acoustic meatus] of temporal bone –>[facial] canal –> above the middle ear cavity–> [Posterior] wall of [middle] ear cavity –> [Stylomastoid] foramen –> in the face within [parotid gland] –> [motor] supply of the face.

Q

Regarding trigeminal nerve:

a. is attached to anterolateral aspect of pons.
b. motor nucleus is in the pons.  Sensory nucleus in all 3 parts of Brain Stem, but motor only in pons
c. receives taste sensation from anterior part of the tongue.
d. receives somatic sensation from the face.
e. All three divisions its nucleus have both motor and sensory functions’  mandibular division has motor along with sensory, other two divisions only sensory

Q

Match the cranial nerve nuclei and their function.

Nucleus tractus solitarius →

Salivatory nuclei →

Somatic motor nucleus →

Nucleus ambiguus →

Branchiomotor supply @ Parasympathetic motor supply @ Taste sensation @ voluntary movements by skeletal muscle

A

Match the cranial nerve nuclei and their function.

The correct answer is:
Nucleus tractus solitarius → Taste sensation,

Salivatory nuclei → Parasympathetic motor supply,

Somatic motor nucleus → voluntary movements by skeletal muscle,

Nucleus ambiguus → Branchiomotor supply
