A) sensory neurons
B) motor neurons

Answer 1

Answer: A

Explanation: Sensory: These nerves carry information to your brain and spinal cord. They either connect directly to your brain through your cranial nerves or carry information to your spinal nerves, which then feed into your spinal cord. The sensory nerve connections to your spinal cord are on the back of your spinal cord.

Answer 2

Answer: A; sensory neurons.
Explanation: I would say it is sensory neurons. This is because sensory refers to our senses (smell, taste, sight, etc). This also applies to carrying signals to the brain to tell it about what is going on in the outside world. Hope that helped!
