Cranial nerves are primarily sensory. These nerves are directly between the brain and the brainstem and are responsible for smell, vision, eye movement, facial sensation, and the tongue movement.

Which cranial nerves carries only sensory information?
The question is asking what three cranial nerves are purely sensory in their function. Some relevant terms here are olfactory, optic, and auditory or vestibucochlear or acoustic nerves. The only three cranial nerves that are pure sensory in function are cranial nerve #1 : the olfactory nerve (smell), cranial nerve #2 : the optic nerve (sight), and cranial nerve #8 : the auditory/vestibucochlear/acoustic nerve (hearing).
What does the fifth cranial nerve do?
Cranial nerve V. is the trigeminal nerve. It got its name after its three branches. Two of the branches are pure sensory, the third is mixed motor and sensory. In short, it gathers sensory information from the scalp, eyelids, eyes (from the cornea and conjuntiva, NOT visual information), nose, cheeks, lips, teeth, gums, oral cavity and jaw. The motor fibers innervate muscles involved in chewing and swallowing.

Assess the cranial nerves?
The cranial nerves are a set of 12 pairs of nerves that emerge from the brain and brainstem, controlling sensory and motor functions in the head and neck. They are responsible for functions such as vision, hearing, taste, and facial movements. A clinical assessment of the cranial nerves involves testing each nerve individually for its specific functions, which can help identify any abnormalities or deficits in nerve function.

Why are pure alkanes colourless tasteless and odourless?
Pure alkanes are colorless, tasteless, and odorless because they contain only carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds, which are non-polar and do not interact with visible light or our taste and smell receptors. This lack of functional groups responsible for color, taste, and odor results in their neutral sensory properties.
