Sensory nerves are also referred to as what?

Efferent
Dermal
Afferent
Central

The correct answer is: Afferent

Sensory nerves are a type of nerve that carry information from sensory receptors in the body to the central nervous system. This information is then processed and used to generate appropriate responses or actions. Sensory nerves are also called afferent nerves because they carry information to the central nervous system, while efferent nerves carry information away from the central nervous system to control muscles and glands. Dermal and central are incorrect options as they do not refer to the same function as sensory nerves. Dermal refers to the skin, while central refers to the central nervous system.
