Your brain receives stimuli. The brain is the biggest organs in your body. Your brain does A-LOT of hard work for you. Hope I helped!

Answer:

The higher level of central nervous system which includes the brain (Thalamus) and spinal cord

Step-by-step explanation:

Though the stimulus is received by the sensory organs, but it is perceived only by the higher nervous system organs such as brain and spinal cord. It is the brain basically that is able to differentiate between the sensory stimuli. The thalamus in the brain act as a relay station for the both the sensory and motor signals. It is the thalamus that decides where the received signal is to be sent after processing.
