Answer:

Afferent or sensory neurons

Step-by-step explanation:

They collect stimuli received by receptors throughout the body, including the skin, eyes, ears, nose, and tongue as well as pain and other receptors in the internal organs. Sensory information is transmitted to the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord.
