CN V Flashcards
(57 cards)
where does VIII exit the brainstep
at cerebellar-pontine angle with CN VII
what fibers are found in cochlear n
SSA
cochlear ganglian contain what type of neurons
bipolary sensory primary neurons
how is the cochlear ganglion unique
cell bodies are scattered around isntead o fclustered
where aer second order fibers of cochlear nuclei found
dorsal acoustic stria and ventral acoustic stria
course of dorsal acoustic stria
ascend in lateral lemniscus
terminate in inferior collili
what are the 3 places that the entral acoustic stria terminates
lateral lemnisus to terminate at inferior colliculi
olivary nuclei
medial nucleus of trapezoid body
first and second order cochlear neurons carry infromatino from what
ipsilateral ear
where are third order cochlear neurons housed
lateral superior auditory nucleus
how are third order cochlear neurons different from first and second order
they are multisynpatic and bilateral
superior colliculi function in what sense
vision
inferior colliculi function in what sense
hearing
function of brachium of inferior colliculus
allow quick connection between hearing and vision
sound attenuation reflex causes what
contractino of tensor tympani and stapedius to dampen auditory input
pathway of first order neurons in sound attenuation reflex
bipolar neurons pick up signal in organ or corti
carry signal to ipilateral ventral cochlear nucleus
pathway of second order neurons in sound attutation reflex
stay ipsilater or decussate
synpase bilaterally in the superior olivary nuclei
pathway of third order neurons in sound attenuation reflex
terminate in trigeminal motor nucleus or facial nucles
what happens when third order neurons reach trigemnal motor nucleus
axons go to tensor tympani m, cause contraction to brace the tympanic membrane
what happens when third order enurons reac the facial nucleus
axons go to stapedius m, cause contraction to brace stapes
what type of fibers does vestivular n carry
SSA
where is vestidcular ganglion located
proximal to vestibular apparist
proximal processes of first order vestibular neurons comes from
cristae of semicircular canal ampulla or hair cells
where do central processes of first order vestibular n terminate
4 vesticular nucli or ipsilateral flocculonodular lobe of cerebellum
what is unique about CN VIII
only CN that sends primary fibers to cerebellum
