The major descending motor tract FROM the cerebrum is the corticospinal tract. The major ascending sensory tracts TO the cerebrum are the sensorimotor tract and the dorsal column lemniscal system.
The spinal nerve passes through the intervertebral foramen, which is a small opening formed by two adjacent vertebrae in the spine. The spinal nerve carries sensory and motor information between the spinal cord and the rest of the body.
The neuron that carries impulses to the central nervous system is called a sensory neuron. Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord, allowing the central nervous system to process and respond to sensory information.
Sensory neurons
Sensory neurons, also known as afferent neurons, carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system (CNS). These neurons transmit information about external stimuli (such as touch, sound, and light) or internal conditions (such as pain or temperature) to the brain and spinal cord.
The reflex arc includes the sensory neuron (sensory intake) to the motor neuron (motor response). This two neuron arc is the fastest. Many times an interneuron at the level of the spinal cord is involved. It passes information to the brain more slowly. It is like an "incident report".
The sensory neurons carry impulses through the spinal cord to the brain.
Sensory neurons are responsible for sending information to the spinal cord. These neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors in the body to the spinal cord, which then relays the information to the brain for processing.
A spinal nerve which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body.

The dorsal root of the spinal nerves carry sensory information to the brain and is hence an afferent pathway.
