Do sensory nerve cells carry information from all sensory receptors to the immune system?
Not all sensory receptors communicate with the immune system. Nerve cells carry information to various parts of the nervous system, eventually communicating with the brain or spinal cord.
What is the function of the PNS?
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.
What system holds the cutaneous sensory receptors that reside in the skin?
NERVOUS system
Is it true that information flows from the sensory receptors to the appropriate primary sensory cortex?
Yes
What is the name of the neurone that carries impulses to the central nervous system?
A sensory neurone.
What neuron carries impulses from receptors to the central nervous system?
Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"
Which component of the nervous system takes information from the environment?
Sensory receptors
Which component of the nervous system take in information from the environment?
Sensory receptors
Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system?
Nerves that only carry impulses away from the central nervous system (CNS) are called:Motor Nerves
What is the function of the sensory organ?
Meissner's corpuscles; pain and touch receptors, Pacinian corpuscles; pressure receptors, hair follicle receptors; light touch receptors, Rufini's corpuscles; respond to deep pressurethat recieve the stimulus
What are the somatic receptors?
Somatic receptors are a specialized type of receptor located near the surface of the body. These cells detect passive types of environmental stimuli, such as temperature, air currents, and barometric pressure. The receptors transmit the information to the sensory pathways via action potentials. The sensory pathways deliver the somatic (and visceral) information to the central nervous system.
Which component of the nervous system makes contact with the environment?
The somatic nervous system of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) makes contact with the enviroment.
What system stimulates muscle to contract and interprets information from sensory organs?
The central nervous system.
Do Sensory nerve cells carry information from all sensory receptors to the immune system.?
Not all sensory receptors communicate with the immune system. Nerve cells carry information to various parts of the nervous system, eventually communicating with the brain or spinal cord.

What body system includes the brain spinal cord and sensory receptors?
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.
What is receptors in Nervous System?
specialized sensory cells
