==Cranial Nerve Fibre Types==
Prior to a full explanation of each cranial nerve function, physiology, anatomy and particularly composition, the numerous types of nerve fibre found in cranial nerves must be explained to ensure that the following page can be better understood. Nerve fibres can undertake numerous roles within the body and their function is dictated by what type of fibre the nerve is composed of. A classification scheme is used to describe the type of fibres found within the cranial nerves and therefore provide a better understanding of the function and composition of that particular nerve. Below is a brief outline of this nerve fibre classification.
