All somatosensory information is conveyed by myelinated axons.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Somatosensory information can be conveyed by both myelinated and unmyelinated axons, depending on the type of sensory receptor and the size of the fiber. For example, rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors (such as Pacinian corpuscles) are usually innervated by myelinated Aβ fibers, while slowly adapting mechanoreceptors (such as Merkel cells) are often innervated by unmyelinated C fibers.
