Seismic waves help scientists understand Earth's layers by:

  • Scientists can observe how seismic waves change speeds when passing through different layers.
  • Scientists can observe which seismic waves cannot pass through certain layers.

<h3>What are Seismic waves?</h3>

These are waves which are generated as a result of the movement of

materials in the earth. They change speed as a result of the collision with

materials in the earth and know the types of material present as a result of

some types not being able to pass through certain medium.

What is the only crainial nerve that enters and leaves the skull?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The answer is the accessory nerve.

Explanation:

We have 12 pairs of cranial nerves, the accessory nerve is the XI pair. This is responsible for the innervation of the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles.

The fibers of the accessory nerve originate from neurons that are located in the upper spinal cord. These fibers join together forming roots and once the nerve is constituted, it enters the skull through the great hole that is located at the base of the skull.

Then, the nerve continues its path along the inside of the skull in the direction of the jugular hole and then leaves the skull next to the glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) and the vagus (X).

Thus, the accessory nerve enters and leaves the skull again, characterized by being the only cranial nerve which has this behavior.
