Question

There are three orders of sensory neurons between the skin and the area of the cerebral cortex that interprets the sensation. Which order crosses from one side of the body to allow the opposite side of the brain to detect the sensation?A)thirdB)all answers are correctC)secondD)first

Answer 1

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

There are basically three orders of the neurons. The first order of neurons carries signals from the periphery to the spinal cord.

The second order of neurons carries information from the spinal cord to thalamus.

The third order of neurons carries information from the thalamus to the primary sensory cortex.

One side of the information from the body is transferred to opposite side of the brain by second order of neurons.
