C. Patient A complains of brief episodes of burning facial pain. Episodes last for 10-15 seconds at a time and occur about 5-6 times per day. Pain radiates from the lateral surface of the cheek to the lower eyelid, nose, upper teeth, and upper lip. The pain is not relieved by over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories. What cranial nerve(s) is/are affected? Explain your answer. D. Patient B is an elderly male who suffers from diabetes mellitus, Type II, and high blood pressure. Patient B complains of a sudden paralysis of his left eye. He cannot elevate, depress, or adduct his left eye. Upon visual examination, it is obvious that Patient B's left eye is 'pointed' down and laterally (out), and that his left upper eyelid droops. What cranial nerve(s) is/are affected? Explain your answer.

33- What sensory cranial nerve pair carries equilibrium information from the ears to the brain? - Olfactory nerves -Vagus nerves -Vestibulocochlear nerves -Glossopharyngeal nerves - Optic nerves 34- Match the following cranial nerves with a function of that nerve. - Cranial nerve that carries auditory information (trigeminal, vestibulocochlear, optic, glossopharyngeal, facial, oculomotor, vagus) - Cranial nerve that innervates some thoracic and abdominal organs (trigeminal, vestibulocochlear, optic, glossopharyngeal, facial, oculomotor, vagus) - Cranial nerve that controls chewing (trigeminal, vestibulocochlear, optic, glossopharyngeal, facial, oculomotor, vagus) 35- Which of the following cranial nerves transmit sensory input from the taste buds of the tongue? select all that apply - Facial -Accessory -Vagus -Hypoglossal -Glossopharyngeal 36- Which of the following cranial nerves has tracts that extend to the occipital lobes? - Abducens nerves -Olfactory nerve Trochlear nerve -Optic nerve -Trigeminal nerve 37- All spinal nerves are classified as (mixed nerves, association neurons, motor nerves, sensory nerves) because they contain both (sensory and motor neurons, sensory and association neurons, neurons and glia, association, and motor neurons). 38- The dorsal root of a (motor, cranial, sensory, spinal) nerve carries (sensory input, motor output) information while the ventral root carries (sensory input, motor output). 39- Number 5 in the image above carries (select all that apply) - Afferent information -Motor information Sensory information -Association information -Efferent information 40- (multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, bell’s palsy, ALS) causes temporary paralysis of facial muscles as well as loss of taste due to inflammation of the (facial, glossopharyngeal, vestibulocochlear, trigeminal, vagus) cranial nerve.
