which of the following cranial nerve of man is both sensory and motor?

1. olfactory
2. optic
3. trigeminal
4. occulomotor

Thetrigeminal nerve is anerveresponsible for sensation in the face and certain motor functions such as biting and chewing. It is the largest of the cranial nerves. Its name ("trigeminal" = tri- or three, and -geminus or twin, or thrice twinned) derives from the fact that each trigeminal nerve, one on each side of thepons, has three major branches: theophthalmic nerve(V1), themaxillary nerve(V2), and themandibular nerve(V3). The ophthalmic and maxillary nerves are purely sensory. The mandibular nerve has both cutaneous and motor functions.
