Optic

accessory
C
Hypoglossal
D
trochlear
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The optic nerve transmits electrical impulses from your eyes to your brain. Your brain processes this sensory information so that you can see.

Detailed explanation-2: -The optic nerve sends visual information from the retina to the brain. The retina is the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. The retina instantly converts light, or an image, into electrical impulses. The retina then sends these impulses, or nerve signals, to the brain.

Detailed explanation-3: -A direct three-neuron chain-photoreceptor cell to bipolar cell to ganglion cell-is the major route of information flow from photoreceptors to the optic nerve.

Detailed explanation-4: -The optic nerve carries visual data from the retina of the eye to a relay station in the centre of the brain (the lateral geniculate nucleus) for transmission to a cortical area at the back of the brain (occipital lobes).
