Name the specific cranial nerves you're using as you read the questions on this page?

Question

for school

Answer 1

Optic nerve - Transmits visual information to the brain.

Oculomotor nerve - Eye movements, so i can read the whole question.

I Dont know any more but there should be more.

Check This Website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cranial_ner...

Answer 2

The optic nerve (II) caries the visual data.

The occulomotor (III), trochlear (IV) and abducens (VI) nerves control eye movements.

The facial nerve (VII) lets you blink and the occulomotor (III) nerve keeps your eyelids open.

Answer 3

Cranial Nerve II - Optic Nerve  

The optic nerve has only a special sensory component

Special sensory conveys visual information from the retina  

Cranial Nerve III - Oculomotor Nerve

The somatic motor component of CN III plays a major role in controlling the muscles responsible for the precise movement of the eyes for visual tracking or fixation on an object.

The visceral motor component is involved in the pupillary light and accomodation reflexes.

Cranial Nerve IV - Trochlear Nerve

Somatic motor innervates the  superior oblique muscle which is one of the six extraocular muscles responsible for the precise movement of the eye for visual tracking or fixation on an object.

Cranial Nerve VI - Abducens Nerve

Somatic motor: innervates the lateral rectus muscle which is one of the six extraocular muscles responsible for the precise movement of the eye for visual tracking or fixation on an object.

In summary -  

II Optic - vision  

III Oculomotor  - eyelid and eyeball movement  

IV Trochlear  -   turns eye downward and laterally  

VI Abducens -   turns eye laterally
