    A sensory system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information. A sensory system consists of sensory receptors, neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception. List of sensory systems; Sensory neuron; Perception; Visual system; Auditory system; Somatosensory system; Vestibular system ...

    English: Complete neuron cell diagram. Neurons (also known as neurones and nerve cells) are electrically excitable cells in the nervous system that process and transmit information. In vertebrate animals, neurons are the core components of the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves.

  4. Sensory neuron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_neuron

    Four types of sensory neuron. Sensory neurons, also known as afferent neurons, are neurons in the nervous system, that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded receptor potentials. [1] This process is called sensory transduction. The cell bodies of the sensory neurons are located in the dorsal ...

  5. Sensory map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_map

    A sensory map is an area of the brain which responds to sensory stimulation, and are spatially organized according to some feature of the sensory stimulation. In some cases the sensory map is simply a topographic representation of a sensory surface such as the skin, cochlea, or retina. In other cases it represents other stimulus properties ...

  6. Sensory nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_nervous_system

    A sensory system consists of sensory neurons (including the sensory receptor cells), neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception and interoception. Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision , hearing , touch , taste , smell , balance and visceral sensation.

  7. Topographic map (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_map_(neuroanatomy)

    In neuroanatomy, topographic map is the ordered projection of a sensory surface (like the retina or the skin) or an effector system (like the musculature) to one or more structures of the central nervous system. Topographic maps can be found in all sensory systems and in many motor systems.

  9. Nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nervous_system

    The somatic part consists of the nerves that innervate the skin, joints, and muscles. The cell bodies of somatic sensory neurons lie in dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord. The visceral part, also known as the autonomic nervous system, contains neurons that innervate the internal organs, blood vessels, and glands.
