Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: The type of neuron that conducts information to the central nervous system is the sensory neuron.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sensory neurons are nerve cells responsible for converting external stimuli from an individual’s environment into internal electrical impulses. They are the type of neurons that send nerve impulses to CNS from receptor organs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sensory neurons are connected to the CNS and allow the brain to know what is happening in our environment. Most are unipolar meaning they have dendrites at both ends connected by a long axon and a cell body in the middle.
Detailed explanation-4: -The sensory (afferent) division carries sensory signals by way of afferent nerve fibers from receptors in the central nervous system (CNS).
