Most of the sensory information first goes through the thalamus.
touch, pressure, pain, taste, and temperature receptors.

Which neuron receives information?
actually we must say all neurons receive information. there are three types of neurons: 1.sensory neuron 2.motor neuron 3.relay neuron the sensory neurons receive information from receptor cells in sense organs and pass the information from sensory neuron to the other and pass the info to spinal cord where they are received by relay neuron. this neuron in turn passes the info to motor neurons which pass the info to cells in effectors and action is performed.relay neurons are messengers between sensory neuron and motor neuron in spinal cord.
Which type of neurone transmits the impulse from a motor to a sensory neurone?
No, not directly. Some sensory neurons can detect the effect of a motor neuron firing.
A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
What type of neuron is found in the dorsal root ganglion?
Sensory. Large diameter sensory neurons populate the medial division of the DRG and convey information regarding proprioception, localized touch, and vibration. In the lateral part of the DRG, small diameter sensory neurons conveying information about pain and temperature.
Neuron that brings information from senses to brain?
There are 2 different kinds of neurons within the body. The neurons that carry messages from senses to the brain are called Sensory Neurons while the neurons that cause the brain to make the body react are called Motor, or efferent, neurons.
What neurons receive information from sensory organs?
Dendrites are the part of the neuron specialized to receive information from other neurons and the axon transmits signals to other neurons or to muscles or glands.

How do the types of neurons found in the CNS and pns differ in their function?
Sensory (afferent) neurons conduct sensory information toward the CNS.The brain and spinal cord contain interneurons. These receive information and if they are sufficiently stimulated, they stimulate other neurons.Motor neurons (efferent neurons) send information from interneurons to muscle or gland cells (effectors).
What neuron carries impulses from receptors to the central nervous system?
Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"
What are neurons that carry information between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
Interneurons or association neurons.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
What are sensory neurones?
Neurons that receive info & send impulses to brian or spinal cord.
Which neurons receive orders from the brain and carry them to your muscles?
Sensory
What are neurons that detect stimuli in the environment?
They are nerves. These nerves tell us exactly what we feel, and then send that information to the brain.
Identify the three kinds of neurons that are found in the nervous system?
sensory,internueron and motor are the names.The nervous system has three basic functions:sensory neurons receive information from the sensory receptorsinterneurons transfer and interpret impulses.motor neurons send appropriate impulses/instructions to the muscles and glands.
What Neurons in center of the spinal cord that receives information from the sensory neurons?
Interneurons.
What does a sensory neurons do?
Sensory neurons are nerves that take in information from either the outside world, or from within the body itself. Sensory neurons communicate this information to the brain which then issues a response. Sensory nerves take in and communicate information about heat, cold, pressure, pain, position and more. detect, feel, and smell
