Vedclass · Answer

(C) The cranial nerves are classified as sensory,motor,or mixed based on their function. $1$. The $Auditory$ (vestibulocochlear) nerve is a sensory nerve involved in hearing and balance. $2$. The $Abducens$ nerve is a motor nerve that controls eye movement. $3$. The $Optic$ nerve is a sensory nerve responsible for vision. $4$. The $Trigeminal$ nerve is a mixed nerve (both sensory and motor). Since both $Auditory$ and $Optic$ are sensory nerves,in the context of standard biology multiple-choice questions where only one answer is expected,$Optic$ is the primary sensory nerve associated with vision. However,both $A$ and $C$ are sensory. Given the standard classification,$Optic$ is the most commonly cited pure sensory nerve.
