Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
These neurons carry signals from tissues and organs to the brain and spinal cord
A
Sensory Neurons
B
Motor Neurons
C
Efferent Neurons
D
Glial Cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Afferent neurons in the dorsal roots carry impulses from the body’s sensory receptors to the spinal cord, where the information begins to be processed. The ventral horns contain efferent motor neurons, which control the body’s periphery.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sensory neurons carry signals from the body to the brain and/or spinal cord. Sensory neurons are found in our sensory organs such as our skin, tongue, ears, eyes and nose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Multipolar neurons are the most common type of neuron. They are located in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and in autonomic ganglia.

Detailed explanation-4: -For example, sensory neurons send information from the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin to the brain. Motor neurons carry messages away from the brain to the rest of the body.
