What is the fiber type in the dorsal root?

The fiber type in the dorsal root is mainly composed of sensory nerve fibers that transmit sensory information from the periphery to the central nervous system. It is made up of both Aδ fibers responsible for transmitting sharp, well-localized pain and touch sensations, and C fibers responsible for transmitting dull, diffuse pain and temperature sensations.

What is a bundle of nerve fibers within the central nervous system?

A bundle of nerve fibers within the central nervous system is called a tract. Tracts serve as communication highways that allow different regions of the brain and spinal cord to send signals to each other. These tracts are organized based on the type of information they carry, such as sensory or motor signals.
