Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The sneeze reflex’s afferent path is via the maxillary nerve (V2), sensing nasal irritation, with efferent via CN VII/X. V1 senses the cornea, V3 the jaw, and vagus (X) isn’t primary here.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The trigeminal nerve (CN V) has its motor nucleus in the upper pons, with three divisions (V1, V2, V3). V3 has motor and sensory roles, and exits vary (e.g., V1 via superior orbital fissure).

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The greater occipital nerve (C2) supplies the vertex and posterior scalp.

Correct Answer: D
