Answer the following questions using your memory, the syllabus, your textbook and whatever other
reference you want.

b. Optic canal
c. Superior orbital fissure
d. Internal acoustic meatus
e. Through the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus
f. Jugular foramen

Loss of salivation
When saying “Ahhhh” during a physical exam a patients uvula deviates to the left
Facial palsy
Shoulder shrugging weakness
During a physical exam a patient is instructed to protrude her tongue and when she does
her tongue always deviates to the left
s. Abnormal/alteration of taste on the anterior tongue
t. Dilated pupils
6. Identify the region of the brain where the nuclei of CN’s III-XII are associated (CN I and II are
extensions of the brain rather than true peripheral nerves and are therefore not associated with
nuclei in the brainstem):
a. Midbrain
b. Pons
c. Medulla oblongata
7. Identify what cell bodies are housed in each of the following ganglia:
a. Ciliary
b. Geniculate
c. Glossopharyngeal

9. Identify the CN that innervates each of the following:
a. Submandibular salivary gland
b. Parotid gland
c. Lacrimal gland
d. Palatal glands
e. Tongue movement
f. All six eye muscles
g. Elevation of the upper eyelid
10. A woman involved in a motor vehicle accident cannot turn her head to the left and has right
shoulder droop. Which nerve is damaged?
11. Patient cannot blink his eye or seal his lips on the right side. Which nerve is damaged?
12. What are the 3 classic signs of Horner’s syndrome? (Hint: PAM is Horny) Explain what could
cause a patient to present with each of these findings.
13. Describe each of the following reflexes and identify the CN’s/nerves responsible for sensory and
motor limbs of each reflex:
a. Corneal reflex
b. Cough reflex
c. Gag reflex
d. Pupillary reflex
e. Accommodation reflex of the lens
