olfactory - sense of smell.
CN2
optic - vision
CN3
Oculomotor - eye movements. Regulation of size of pupil.

Trauma which results in skull fracture, tumors and facial surgery may all result in disturbance of peripheral branches of the sensory component of CN ____. This presents as a decrease in sensation to the area served by the peripheral nerve. ________________ results in pain in the lips, gums, cheek or chin without sensory loss. It is generally idiopathic but may be caused by demyelinative plaque, zoster, or tumor.

_____________ (lesions of the motor branch of CN V) is caused by tumors of middle cranial fossa, schwannomas of CN V or lesions in cavernous sinus. This leads to asymmetry of jaw on opening or weakness with mastication.

CN ___ is in charge of parasympathetic
CN10 vegus
CN XII
hypoglossal - tongue movements.
This nerve is tested by first observing the tongue (while in floor of mouth) for fasciculations. If present, fasciculations may indicate peripheral CN___ dysfunction. Next, the patient is asked to protrude tongue and move tongue in all directions.
