Which CN assesses the strength of the temporal and masseter muscles?
CN V trigeminal
Damage to this nerve will cause dysphagia, dysphonia and a lost gag reflex
CN X Vagus
nerve that supplies the tongue, throat, and one of the salivary glands (the parotid gland). Problems with this nerve result in trouble with taste and swallowing.
CN IX Glossopharyngeal
Paralysis of this nerve is called Bell's palsy.
CN VII Facial
This nerve operates the lateral rectus muscle that draws the eye toward the side of the head
CN VI Abducens
Paralysis of this nerve causes inward turning of the eye (internal strabismus) leading to double vision
CN VI Abducens
is the nerve supply to the superior oblique muscle of the eye
CN IV Trochlear
Paralysis of this nerve results in drooping eyelid (ptosis), deviation of the eyeball outward (and therefore double vision) and a dilated (wide-open) pupil.
CN III Occulomotor
is responsible for the nerve supply to muscles about the eye:

The upper eyelid muscle which raises the eyelid;
The extraocular muscle which moves the eye inward; and
The pupillary muscle which constricts the pupil.
CN III Occulomotor
It functions as the chief nerve of sensation for the face
CN V Trigeminal it has the 3 sensory branches
Problems with the motor root of this nerve result in deviation of the jaw toward the affected side and trouble chewing.
CN V Trigeminal
