GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Sensory neurons are the neurons that carry impulses from receptor to the brain where the sensation is interpreted. Sensory neurons are afferent neurons since they take the sensation/stimulus towards the CNS, that is, the brain and the spinal cord.

Detailed explanation-2: -Afferent neurons, also called sensory neurons, are the nerve fibers responsible for bringing sensory information from the outside world into the brain. Sensory information may involve special senses, such as vision, hearing, smell, or taste, as well as the sense of touch, pain, and temperature.

Detailed explanation-3: -Afferent, or sensory, neurons carry impulses from peripheral sense receptors to the CNS.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Sensory neurons, also known as afferent neurons, are neurons in the nervous system, that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded potentials.
