Difference between Abducens nerve and Orbit (anatomy)

Abducens nerve vs. Orbit (anatomy)

The abducens nerve is a nerve that controls the movement of the lateral rectus muscle in humans, responsible for outward gaze. In anatomy, the orbit is the cavity or socket of the skull in which the eye and its appendages are situated.

Similarities between Abducens nerve and Orbit (anatomy)

Abducens nerve and Orbit (anatomy) have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cranial nerves, Human eye, Internal carotid artery, Lateral rectus muscle, Medial rectus muscle, Medulla oblongata, Superior orbital fissure.

Cranial nerves

Cranial nerves are the nerves that emerge directly from the brain (including the brainstem), in contrast to spinal nerves (which emerge from segments of the spinal cord).

Superior orbital fissure

The superior orbital fissure is a foramen in the skull, although strictly it is more of a cleft, lying between the lesser and greater wings of the sphenoid bone.
