Across 3. "in the trench"; only cranial nerve that carries axon impulses from the posterior side of the brain stem to the superior oblique eye muscle. 6. axons are distributed from the pons to the face, scalp, neck, and mouth regions; enables sense of taste on anterior 2/3 of the tongue. and motor functions of tear glandsand salivary glands, and muscles of the regions it connects to. 8. axons go from the medulla to regions of the tongue and throat; motor functions include swallowing, speech, and salivary glands, while sensory functions include all sensations including taste on the back 1/3 of the tongue. 12. axons are distributed from medulla to the tongue muscles; it enables the movement of the tongue during swallowing and speech.

Down 1. contains two branches: 1 that has axons from the inner ear to the pons, the other has axons from the inner ear to the medulla; this nerve enables sense of balance and hearing. 2. the largest cranial nerve; axons are distributed though three branches from the pons; has motor funcion of chewing,but main function is for sense of pain, anterior 2/3 of the tongue, etc. 4. sense of smell; axons carry impulses from the superior nasal mucosa to this bulb. 5. axons carry impulses from pons to the lateral rectus muscle of the eye, moving the eye outward. 7. "the big eye mover"; constricts pupil and responsible for movements of the eye and upper eyelid; axons carry impulses from the midbrain to the upper eyelid musle, the sphincter muscle, and all the extraocular motor musles but 2. 9. comes from cervical portion of the spinal cord; involved in the motor function of moving the head and shoulders; axons are distributed to the regions of the neck and posterior mouth. 10. sense of sight; axons carry cell bodies from the retina to the thalamus. 11. it carries motor impulses to and sensory impulses from most organsin the thoracic/abdominal cavities; axons are distribruted from the medulla to the head, neck, thorax, and abdomen; major ANS function.
