Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct order is: Specialized sensory cells detect a stimulus and send the information to sensory neurons, which relay the information to the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS processes the information and sends a response via motor neurons to effector cells (muscles or glands) to carry out a response.
