This page covers biological details of component Geniculate Ganglion. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  • Top-down path to region: Peripheral Nervous System -> Sensory Ganglia (PN.SG) -> Sensory Exteroception Ganglia (PN.SG.SE) (PN.SG.SE) -> Geniculate Ganglion (LPC.PN.SG.GNG) (LPC.PN.SG.GNG) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: sensory ganglion
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
  • Role: sensory
  • Function: Trophic support for survival
  • Notes to function: Innervation taste buds, ear skin
