Description: Unipolar (pseudounipolar) – Unipolar neurons are the most common type of sensory neuron. In addition to pain and. touch, they also carry information about temperature, taste, proprioception (body position) and visceral organ activity.
Description: Satellite Cells – Satellite glial cells are a type of glia found in the peripheral nervous system, specifically in sensory, sympathetic, and parasympathetic ganglia. They compose the thin cellular sheaths that surround the individual neurons in these ganglia.
