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.

No, sensory nerve cells primarily carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) for processing. The immune system receives information about potential threats from specialized cells called immune cells, such as lymphocytes and macrophages.

The other name for sensory is afferent. Afferent neurons carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"
Yes, sensory neurons are a type of afferent neuron. They carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) makes contact with the environment. It includes sensory receptors that detect stimuli like touch, temperature, and pain, transmitting this information to the central nervous system for processing.
Toll-like receptors are part of the innate immune system.
