(a)
To Determine:
The cranial nerve that conveys signal to the brain when sand blows into the eyes.
Introduction:
The nervous system maintains the coordination by the means of electrical and chemical signals that are transferred from one nerve cell to another nerve cell. The nervous system is majorly divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Nerve cell is the functional unit of the nervous system.
(b)
To Determine:
The cranial nerve that conveys signal to the brain when a person bite the rear of its tongue.
