In higher vertebrates, such as reptiles, birds and mammals, there are 12 pairs of cranial nerves. Lower vertebrates, such as fish and amphibians, have 10 pairs of cranial nerves. Continue Reading.
Depending on definition in humans there are twelve or thirteen cranial nerves pairs, which are assigned Roman numerals IâXII, sometimes also including cranial nerve zero. The numbering of the spinal nerves is based on the order in which they emerge from the brain, front to back (brainstem).pinal nerves emerge sequentially from the spinal cord with the spinal nerve closest to the head (C1) emerging in the space above the first cervical vertebra. The cranial nerves emerge from the central nervous system above this level.
