Historically, there existed a drug that was the sole anesthetic for surgery until it was realized that the patient's sense of feeling was unaffected. Patients experienced the pain surgery, but could not react until the drug "wore off". Predict how the drug could block patients from reacting to pain but not from feeling pain. This drug affects transmission of information between sensory neurons and their postsynaptic cells, but not between motor neurons and their postsynaptic cells This drug affects transmission of information between both sensory neurons and their postsynaptic cells, and motor neurons and their postsynaptic cells This drug affects transmission of information between motor neurons and their postsynaptic cells, but not between sensory neurons and their postsynaptic cells O O O
