Directions: In the following table, list all of the cranial nerves in order, using proper numbering and names. State what part of the CNS they emerge from (forebrain, midbrain, pons, or medulla). State whether each is sensory, motor, or both. Name their function. Use proper spelling.
Nerve #
Nerve Name
Emerges from:
Sens/Mot or Both
From rostral to caudal order, name the structures and junctions that make up the brainstem.
In the adult brain, which three of five brain vesicles form the brainstem?
What are the cerebellar peduncles and where are they located?
The cranial nerve nuclei for motor functions are located more ventrally in the brainstem, and those for sensory functions are located more dorsally. True or false? _______________
Where is the pyramidal decussation?
