THORAX ABDOMEN AND PELVIS

Detailed explanation-1: -The trigeminal nerve is the largest of the cranial nerves and provides sensory and motor innervation to the muscles of mastication. [1] More specifically, the sensory information conducted by this nerve includes touch, pain, and temperature.

Detailed explanation-2: -The trigeminal nerve (V) is the largest cranial nerve, and it has both a sensory and a motor division. The motor division of the trigeminal nerve, which has its own nucleus located in the pons, innervates the “muscles of mastication” and also the tensor muscle of the tympanic membranes of the ear.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sensory function of the trigeminal nerve is to provide tactile, proprioceptive, and nociceptive afference to the face and mouth. Its motor function activates the muscles of mastication, the tensor tympani, tensor veli palatini, mylohyoid and the anterior belly of the digastric.
