Physical Functionality/ Physical Functionality 2 – Brain Nerve
1. **Cerebral Arteriosclerosis:** Cerebral arteriosclerosis is the thickening and hardening of the arteries in the brain, which can lead to reduced blood flow and an increased risk of stroke or other cerebrovascular conditions.
2. **Cranial Nerve 1, Olfactory:** Cranial nerve 1, the olfactory nerve, is responsible for the sense of smell. It transmits information from the nasal cavity to the brain.
3. **Cranial Nerve 2, Optic:** Cranial nerve 2, the optic nerve, is responsible for transmitting visual information from the retina to the brain.
4. **Cranial Nerve 3, Oculomotor:** Cranial nerve 3, the oculomotor nerve, controls most of the eye's movements, including constriction of the pupil and maintaining an open eyelid.
5. **Cranial Nerve 4, Trochlear:** Cranial nerve 4, the trochlear nerve, innervates the superior oblique muscle of the eye, which allows for downward and inward eye movement.
6. **Cranial Nerve 5, Trigeminal:** Cranial nerve 5, the trigeminal nerve, is responsible for facial sensations and motor functions such as chewing.
7. **Cranial Nerve 6, Abducens:** Cranial nerve 6, the abducens nerve, controls the lateral rectus muscle, enabling the eye to move outward.
8. **Cranial Nerve 7, Facial:** Cranial nerve 7, the facial nerve, controls facial expressions and conveys taste sensations from the front two-thirds of the tongue.
9. **Cranial Nerve 9, Glossopharyngeal:** Cranial nerve 9, the glossopharyngeal nerve, plays a role in swallowing, salivation, and taste sensations from the back third of the tongue.
10. **Cranial Nerve 10, Vagus:** Cranial nerve 10, the vagus nerve, is involved in the regulation of heart rate, digestion, and respiratory functions.
11. **Cranial Nerve 11, Spinal Accessory:** Cranial nerve 11, the spinal accessory nerve, controls the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles, affecting head movement and shoulder elevation.
12. **Cranial Nerve 12, Hypoglossal:** Cranial nerve 12, the hypoglossal nerve, controls tongue movement, which is essential for speech, swallowing, and other functions.
13. **Memory Index (ZS):** The memory index measures cognitive function and memory performance, which can be impacted by various factors such as age, health, and neurological conditions.
14. **Parasympathetic NS Function:** The parasympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system responsible for rest and digest functions, including slowing the heart rate and promoting digestion.
15. **Cranial Nerve 8, Auditory:** Cranial nerve 8, the auditory nerve (also known as the vestibulocochlear nerve), is responsible for hearing and balance.
16. **Sympathetic NS Function:** The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system that prepares the body for fight-or-flight responses, including increasing heart rate and blood pressure.
