Detailed explanation-1: -The hypoglossal nerve, also known as the twelfth cranial nerve, cranial nerve XII, or simply CN XII, is a cranial nerve that innervates all the extrinsic and intrinsic muscles of the tongue except for the palatoglossus, which is innervated by the vagus nerve.
Detailed explanation-2: -Specifically, the spinal accessory nerve provides somatic motor innervation to the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles, while the hypoglossal nerve provides somatic motor innervation to almost all the muscles of the tongue.
Detailed explanation-3: -The roots of the ninth and tenth nerves exit together from the medulla and leave the skull through the jugular foramen in the company of the eleventh nerve. The superior and petrosal ganglia of the glossopharyngeal nerve are in the jugular foramen.
