CRANIAL
NERVES
Cranial Nerves
• Twelve pairs
of cranial
nerves
– That arise
from the brain
• Each nerve is
identified by a
Roman
number
– I through XII
– and a name
Cranial Nerves
•
Four Classifications of Cranial Nerves
1. Sensory nerves
**Carry somatic sensory information, including
touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, and pain
2. Special sensory nerves
**Carry sensations such as smell, sight, hearing,
balance
3. Motor nerves:
**Axons of somatic motor neurons
4. Mixed nerves:
**Mixture of motor and sensory fibers
