Category:Cranial Nerve

From Embryology

This Embryology category shows content related to the cranial nerve development (cerebral nerves) that are associated with the brain and the brainstem.

These nerves arise from ectoderm forming both neural crest and epibranchial placodes.

  1. CN I – Olfactory nerve
  2. CN II – Optic nerve
  3. CN III – Oculomotor nerve
  4. CN IV – Trochlear nerve
  5. CN V – Trigeminal nerve
  6. CN VI – Abducens nerve
  7. CN VII – Facial nerve
  8. CN VIII – Vestibulocochlear nerve
  9. CN IX – Glossopharyngeal nerve
  10. CN X – Vagus nerve
  11. CN XI – Accessory nerve
  12. CN XII – Hypoglossal nerve
