unit 7: CN para pathways Flashcards
the PREganglionic CB of the oculomotor n. are located in the __ __ nucleus, within the midbrain, in the ___ ___
accessory oculomotor
periaqueductal gray
oculomotor PREganglionic fibers follow the path of the oculomotor into the orbit and synapse in the __ ganglion
ciliary
oculomotor POSTganglionic axons are carried in __ __ nerves and enter the eyball to supply the ___ muscle and __ __
short ciliary ciliary (contract, convex lens, focus closer) sphincter pupillae (contract, decrease pupil size)
location of facial nerve PREganglionic CB
salivary nucleus (superior)
preganglionic fibers exit the CNS in the intermediate nerve and are carried in these two branches of the facial nerve:
greater petrosal nerve
chorda tympani
- greater petrosal n. leaves facial n. at the __ ganglion and carries PREganglionic PARA fibers anteriorward thru the ____ for the greater petrosal n.
- re-enters petrous part of temporal bone thru the __ __, travels in the pterygoid canal, ultimately joins the ____ ganglion
geniculate
hiatus
foramen lucerum
pterygopalatine
POSTganglionic fibers from the greater petrosal are distrubuted in the __ and __ nerves to reach the lacrimal, nasal, palatine and pharyngeal glands
lacrimal
pterygopalatine
- chorda tympani carries PREganglionic PARA fibers thru the tympanic cavity, exits temporal bone thru the __ __
- then combines with ____ nerve, from the mandibular division of the trigeminal, before leaving to reach the ___ ganglion
pterygotympanic fissure
lingual
submandibular
POSTganglionic fibers from the chorda tympani travel to __ and ___ glands, as well as glands in the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, lingual glands on anterior part of tongue
submandibular
sublingual
location of the PREganglionic CB of teh glossopharyngeal nerve
salivary nucleus (inferior)
- glossopharyngeal preganglionic fibers are carried in the ___ nerve, off the glossopharyngeal at the inferior ganglion
- fibers are carried thru the __ __ into the tympanic cavity
tympanic
tympanic canaliculus
- in the tympanic cavity, the glossopharyngeal nerve receives POSTganglionic symp fibers from the __ __ ganglion to form the tympanic plexus
- PREganglionic PARA fibers pass thru the plexus and reform as the __ __ nerve, which travels thru the lesser petrosal canal to the __ ganglion
superior cervical
lesser petrosal
otic
(glossopharyngeal) POSTganglionic PARA fibers from the otic ganglion are carried to the __ and posterior __ glands
parotid
lingual
glossopharyngeal postganglionic PARA fibers reach the PAROTID gland via the ___ nerve, from the mandibular division of the trigeminal
auriculotemporal
the posterior lingual glands get POSTganglionif fibers via the __ branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve
lingual
- ___ (special sensory) fibers are carried in the lingual branch of the glossopharyngeal
- other visceral afferents are carried in the carotid sinus branch from ___ in the carotid SINUS and ___ in the carotid BODY
taste
baroreceptors
chemoreceptors
