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.

Where are pseudounipolar neurons found?

The soma (cell body) of each pseudounipolar neuron is located within a dorsal root ganglion. The axon leaves the cell body (and out of the dorsal root ganglion) into the dorsal root, where it splits into two branches. The central branch goes to the posterior (dorsal) horn of the spinal cord, where it forms synapses with other neurons. The peripheral branch travels through the distal dorsal root into the spinal nerve all the way until skin, joint, and muscle.

Cell body of sensory neuron - in dorsal root ganglion. Cell body of motor neuron - in anterior gray horn.

Cell body for first order neuron located here?

The cell body of the first-order neuron is typically located in the dorsal root ganglion (also known as the spinal or sensory ganglion) of the spinal cord. From there, it sends signals to the spinal cord or directly to the brain, depending on the type of sensory information it is transmitting.

Name the PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons?

The PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons is called satellite glial cells. They provide structural support and regulate the microenvironment around the neuron cell bodies in the ganglia.

What is a displaced doral root ganglion?

A dorsal root ganglion is a cluster of nerves in the spine, specifically in the dorsal root. Displaced means that it's been moved out of its intended location.
