which cranial nerves are only motor?
27736
Cranial nerves III, IV, VI, XI, and XII are pure motor nerves. Cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X are mixed sensory and motor nerves.

The cranial nerves leave the brain, and the spinal nerves leave the spinal cord. Twelve pairs of cranial nerves, the cell bodies of which are located in the brain, can be seen most clearly in a ventral view of the brain (Figure 4.1).

The twelve cranial nerves, in order from I to XII are: olfactory nerve, optic nerve, oculomotor nerve, trochlear nerve, trigeminal nerve, abducens nerve, facial nerve, vestibulocochlear nerve, glossopharengeal nerve, vagus nerve, spinal accessory nerve, and hypoglossal nerve.

The cranial nerves are 12 pairs of nerves that can be seen on the ventral (bottom) surface of the brain. Some of these nerves bring information from the sense organs to the brain; other cranial nerves control muscles; other cranial nerves are connected to glands or internal organs such as the heart and lungs.

The Abducens Nerve (CN VI) The abducens nerve is the sixth paired cranial nerve. It has a purely somatic motor function – providing innervation to the lateral rectus muscle.

Sensory nerves arise from sensory neurons. ... Mixed cranial nerves consist of motor and sensory nerve fibers and, as such, function in both of the above ways. Out of the cranial nerves, this includes the trigeminal nerve (CN V), facial nerve (CN VII), glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX), and the vagus nerve (CN X).

There is one cranial nerve associated with the pons proper, the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). Three other cranial nerves are located at the pontomedullary junction: the abducens nerve (cranial nerve VI), the facial nerve(cranial nerve VII), and the vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII).

The Cranial Sympathetics—The cranial sympathetics include sympathetic efferent fibers in the oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves, as well as sympathetic afferent in the last three nerves.

For cranial nerves, cell bodies of upper motor neurons are in the head and neck area of the motor cortex. Axons descend, decussating just before synapsing with cell bodies of lower motor neurons which make up the motor nucleus of that cranial nerve.

Terms in this set (20) What is the main structural difference between the somatic and autonomic nervous systems? Motor neurons of the SNS directly control effectors, whereas motor neurons of the ANS do not directly control effectors.

The olfactory nerve, or cranial nerve I, is the first of the 12 cranial nerves. It is instrumental in the sense of smell. The olfactory nerve is the shortest of the 12 cranial nerves and only one of two cranial nerves (the other being the optic nerve) that do not join with the brainstem.

The four cranial nerves involved in vision and movement of the eyes are the optic (II) nerve, oculomotor (III) nerve, trochlear (IV) nerve and the abducen (VI) nerve. The optic nerve is the sensory nerve for vision. It transmits information from the eyes to the brain.

Overview of the Nervous System Specifically, the parasympathetic nervous system, from the cranial side, concerns four of the cranial nerves, which will be dealt with later (specifically the oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves).

It includes the cranial nerves, spinal nerves and their roots and branches, peripheral nerves, and neuromuscular junctions. The anterior horn cells, although technically part of the central nervous system (CNS), are sometimes discussed with the peripheral nervous system because they are part of the motor unit.

Lower motor neurons are all the neurons that send motor axons outside the neuraxis into the peripheral nerves: both cranial and spinal nerves. LMNs are designated second-order neurons.

Due to the vascular supply of the brainstem, brainstem strokes typically affect multiple cranial nerves in addition to either motor or sensory tracts traveling to the spinal cord. Bell's palsy, on the other hand, typically affects only the facial nerve, causing only peripheral facial weakness.
