Detailed explanation-1: -Thalamus: The thalamus is the relay center of the brain. It receives afferent impulses from sensory receptors located throughout the body and processes the information for distribution to the appropriate cortical area. It is also responsible for regulating consciousness and sleep.

Detailed explanation-2: -Afferent neurons, also known as sensory neurons, are the nerve fibres that bring sensory information from the external environment to the brain. They carry information from receptor cells to the Central Nervous System.

Detailed explanation-3: -Afferent or sensory neurons collect stimuli received by receptors throughout the body, including the skin, eyes, ears, nose, tongue as well as pain and other receptors in the internal organs. Sensory information is transmitted to the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord.
