What cranial nerve arises from both the medulla and spinal cord
Spinal accessory nerve (XI)
The telencephalon gives rise to
Cerebrum
The diencephalon gives rise to
Thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus
Which nerve is the only nerve that arises from the dorsal surface of the brainstem?
Trochlear (IV)
Each nerve can be described as
sensory, motor, or mixed
Motor to skeletal m.
general somatic efferent
motor to smooth m., cardiac m., glands
general visceral efferent
sensory from touch, temp, smell
general somatic afferent
Sensory from internal organs, glands, blood vessels
general visceral afferent
Senses derived from ectoderm (sight, sound balance)
special somatic sensory
Senses derived from endoderm (taste, smell)
special visceral sensory
