Sensory receptors provide the connection between the stimulus such as heat, cold, and pain and the CNS.
The somatic nervous system of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) makes contact with the enviroment.

The peripheral nervous system comprises the sensory and motor neurons.
Yes, the peripheral nervous system has both sensory and motor nerve cells

yes
The peripheral nervous system, contains all the nerves in the body that lie outside of the spinal cord and brain. They also relay signals from sensory receptors that monitor external conditions to the central nervous system.
specialized sensory cells
Sensory nerves are part of the peripheral nervous system which includes the cranial and spinal nerves. They bring impulses to the central nervous system which includes the brain and spinal cord. Peripheral means the sides and that is why the sensory nerves are referred to as the peripheral nervous system. All of the nervous system is related to the skin because both the nervous system tissues and skin tissues originated in endoderm during the gastrula stage of embryonic development. The sensory nerves form the link between receptors and the central nervous system (CNS). They carry nerve impulses from stimulated receptors to the CNS. They are also referred to as afferent nerves.
The peripheral nervous system, or PNS, conveys nerve impulses from your receptors to the central nervous system, or CNS. They also will convey nerve impulses from the CNS to your effector organs, typically a muscle or gland.
