Chapter 14, Problem 3DYKB
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Tertiary neurons form a sensory homunculus in the brain. They project into the cortical postcentral gyrus region of the brain. It is an example of interneuron. It reaches the cerebrum from the secondary neuron. These neurons finally extend to somatosensory neurons of the parietal lobe.
