o cranial
need help? review these concept resources.

Explanation:

Cranial nerves are designated by Roman numerals (e.g., I - XII) and their names often reflect their functions or fiber distribution (e.g., optic nerve for vision, facial nerve for facial movements and sensation). Spinal nerves are numbered based on the vertebral level they exit and are named for that level, not typically with Roman numerals in the same way cranial nerves are.

Answer:

B. cranial
