The nuclei of the abducens and oculomotor nerves are connected . This is important in coordinating motion of the lateral rectus in one eye and the medial action on the other . In one eye, in two antagonistic muscles, like the lateral and medial recti, contraction of one leads to inhibition of the other . Muscles shows small degrees of activity even when resting, keeping the muscles taut . This "tonic" activity is brought on by discharges of the motor nerve to the muscle . </P>

Which of the following is a muscle which turns the eye superiorly and lateral
