Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ganglia associated with afferent nerve fibers contain cell bodies of sensory neurons. This is because afferent fibers carry sensory information from the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system, where the information is processed. This information is transmitted through the cell bodies of sensory neurons, which are located in the ganglia associated with afferent fibers.
