A neuron with its axon connected to another neuron and its dendrites connected to a receptor:
Correct answer: A. Sensory
- A. Sensory
- B. Motor
- C. Association
- D. Unipolar
Explanation
Sensory neurons, also known as afferent neurons, transmit signals from sensory receptors (such as those for touch, temperature, pain, etc.) to the central nervous system (CNS). These neurons typically have dendrites that receive signals from receptors and an axon that transmits those signals to the CNS, making them well-suited for the scenario described.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
