PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Afferent neurons carry information from sensory receptors of the skin and other organs to the central nervous system (i.e., brain and spinal cord), whereas efferent neurons carry motor information away from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nerve fibers that carry impulses toward the central nervous system are called afferent nerve fibers. Afferent nerve fibers are typically sensory neurons that have sensory receptors capable of detecting certain stimuli and which trigger action potentials that are sent towards the central nervous system along.
