Answer: Hypoglossal Nerve

Explanation:

The hypoglossal nerve lies at the twelfth cranial nerve, and is involved in all the movements and function of tongue.

It is originated by the vagus nerve. It is responsible for the motor function. It is not responsible for the sensory function.

It helps in the movement of the tongue during the time of talking, swallowing, and moving it from side to side.
