The correct Answer is:
To determine the group of cranial nerves associated with the movement of the eyeball, we can analyze the options provided: 1. **Identify the cranial nerves involved in eye movement**: - The cranial nerves that control eye movement are: - **Oculomotor nerve (Cranial Nerve III)**: Responsible for most eye movements, including the movement of the eyelid and pupil constriction. - **Trochlear nerve (Cranial Nerve IV)**: Controls the superior oblique muscle, which helps in rotating the eye. - **Abducens nerve (Cranial Nerve VI)**: Controls the lateral rectus muscle, which is responsible for moving the eye laterally. 2. **Evaluate the options**: - **Option 1: 1, 2, and 8** (Olfactory, Optic, and Vestibulocochlear): This option is incorrect as the olfactory and optic nerves are not involved in eye movement. - **Option 2: 3rd and 6th** (Oculomotor and Abducens): This option is partially correct but misses the trochlear nerve (Cranial Nerve IV). - **Option 3: 7th, 9th, and 12th** (Facial, Glossopharyngeal, and Hypoglossal): This option is incorrect as these nerves are not involved in eye movement. - **Option 4: 3rd, 4th, and 7th** (Oculomotor, Trochlear, and Facial): This option is incorrect because the facial nerve is not involved in eye movement. 3. **Conclusion**: - The correct group of cranial nerves associated with the movement of the eyeball is **Cranial Nerves III (Oculomotor), IV (Trochlear), and VI (Abducens)**. Therefore, the most accurate option would be one that includes all three of these nerves, which is not explicitly listed in the options provided. ### Final Answer: The group of cranial nerves associated with the movement of the eyeball are the Oculomotor (III), Trochlear (IV), and Abducens (VI) nerves.
