- A 20-year-old woman is brought to the emergency department 30 minutes after being found unconscious in her dormitory room. Part of the physical examination involves observing for conjugate eye movements after carefully opening the patient's eyelids and turning the head to the right and then to the left. The presence of this reflex suggests that the neural pathway from which of the following receptors is intact? A) Anterior semicircular canals B) Horizontal semicircular canals C) Posterior semicircular canals D) Saccule E) Utriclearrow_forwardBased on the test scenario provided, choose what types of cranial nerves were involved and what type of nerve give the options! 1.
