### Question:
What neuron structure is located at the posterior root ganglion?

### Options:
- ○ Motor neuron cell bodies
- ○ Sensory neuron cell bodies
- ○ Motor neuron axon terminals
- ○ Sensory neuron axon terminals

This question is designed to test your understanding of neuronal structures within the peripheral nervous system. The posterior root ganglion, also known as the dorsal root ganglion, is where sensory neuron cell bodies are located. This is a critical component for processing sensory information from the body to the central nervous system.
