Which of the following react directly to light, sound, or other stimuli by sending impulses to other neurons and, eventually, to the central nervous system?

Sensory receptors detect stimuli such as light and sound and convert them into nerve impulses. Those impulses travel to other neurons and eventually reach the central nervous system. Sensory adaptations and absolute thresholds describe aspects of sensation, while accessory structures help support sensory organs but do not directly send the impulses.
