Damage in which of the following locations would best account for these findings? O the right trigeminal ganglion, sparing all other systems. O the right lateral corticospinal tract, sparing the facial sensory and motor nuclei. the vicinity of the right abducens nucleus, affecting the facial nerve. the right oculomotor nucleus, sparing the facial motor and sensory nuclei. O the left lateral corticospinal tract, sparing the oculomotor nucleus and the trigeminal and facial sensory and motor nuclei.
