Question

Which of the following correctly lists the structures through which tactile stimuli travel after being converted into

neural signals?
A. spinal cord, somatosensory cortex, thalamus
B. somatosensory cortex, thalamus, spinal cord
C. thalamus, spinal cord, somatosensory cortex
D. spinal cord, thalamus, somatosensory cortex

Answer 1

spinal cord, thalamus, somatosensory cortex

Step-by-step explanation:

spinal cord, thalamus, somatosensory cortex

Answer 2

B because the neuron signals have to be processed by the somatosensory cortex, then it goes to the thalamus (the brain’s relay station), then it travels down the spinal cord to the responding muscle
