  1. Sensory nerves
  2. Motor nerves
  3. Both And B
  4. Mixed nerves

hintHint:

The optic nerve is an example of a sensory nerve.

The correct answer is: Sensory nerves


    • Sensory neurons, also known as afferent neurons, are neurons in the nervous system, that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded potentials.
    • The optic nerve (CN II) contains sensory neurons dedicated to vision. The oculomotor nerve (CN III) provides a motor function for all eye muscles except those supplied by cranial nerves IV and VI.
