O temporal lobe
Select ALL of the following which are TRUE of Ascending
tracts of white matter:
second order neurons are the actual sensory neurons
carry motor commands down from the brain
third order neurons are interneurons in the thalamus
fırst order and second order neurons synapse in the posterior
