Question
Chapter 14.3, Problem 6WDYL
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The following structures in order for relaying the sensory input to the spinal cord: posterior horn, sensory receptors (tactile receptors of skin), spinal nerves, and posterior root.
Introduction:
Sensory nerve impulses (or sensory input) are always transmitted to the brain and spinal cord. This information is carried by the sensory neurons. These neurons constitute the sensory cranial (brain) or spinal nerves.
