MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The oculomotor nerve (the third cranial nerve; CN III) has three main motor functions: Innervation to the pupil and lens (autonomic, parasympathetic) Innervation to the upper eyelid (somatic) Innervation of the eye muscles that allow for visual tracking and gaze fixation (somatic)

Detailed explanation-2: -Cranial nerves III, IV, VI, XI, and XII are pure motor nerves. Cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X are mixed sensory and motor nerves. The olfactory nerve (CN I) contains special sensory neurons concerned with smell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cranial nerve 3, also called the oculomotor nerve, has the biggest job of the nerves that control eye movement. It controls 4 of the 6 eye muscles in each eye: Medial rectus muscle (moves the eye inward toward the nose)
