Question
what do afferent nerves do?
○ carry sensory information from one sense to the next
○ carry sensory information to the brain
○ carry motor information from the brain
○ carry motor information to the brain
Afferent nerves (sensory nerves) are responsible for transmitting sensory information (like from sensory receptors in the body) to the central nervous system, which includes the brain. The first option is incorrect as they don't carry info between senses. The third and fourth are about motor info, but afferent is sensory. So the correct description is carrying sensory info to the brain.
