    Cranial Nerves The brain and spinal cord (CNS) are connected to parts of the body by nerves and cell bodies called the peripheral nervous system. The PNS contains all of the nervous tissue outside the brain and spinal cord. Afferent (sensory) nerve fibers-conduct nerve impulses toward the CNS Efferent (motor) nerve fibers-conduct nerve pulses away Sensory Somatic System – Carries nerve impulses from the senses to the CNS and also carries the impulses to the skeletal muscles and glands

It has three divisions which enervate the forehead and eye (ophthalmic V1)‚ cheek (maxillary V2) and lower face and jaw (mandibular V3). The trigeminal nerves function in sensing facial touch‚ pain and temperature‚ as well as controlling muscles used for chewing.

    What is the difference between Serial transmission and parallel transmission? Answer: Digital data transmission can occur in two basic modes: serial or parallel. Data within a computer system is transmitted via parallel mode on buses with the width of the parallel bus matched to the word size of the computer system. Data between computer systems is usually transmitted in bit serial mode . Consequently‚ it is necessary to make a parallel-to-serial conversion at a computer interface when sending

    Handout Lab 5 - Cranial Nerves: Assessment of Functions INTRODUCTION The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and the spinal cord. The CNS receives sensory information from other parts of the body or the body’s external environment and transmits motor information to other parts of the body by way of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS of the human includes 31 pairs of spinal nerves and 12 pairs of cranial nerves. Some nerves contain only motor nerve fibers (efferent fibers);

    A Review of Facial Nerve Anatomy Terence M. Myckatyn‚ M.D.1 and Susan E. Mackinnon‚ M.D.1 ABSTRACT An intimate knowledge of facial nerve anatomy is critical to avoid its inadvertent injury during rhytidectomy‚ parotidectomy‚ maxillofacial fracture reduction‚ and almost any surgery of the head and neck. Injury to the frontal and marginal mandibular branches of the facial nerve in particular can lead to obvious clinical deficits‚ and areas where these nerves are particularly susceptible to injury
