Is the optical nerve a sensory neuron?
is the optical nerve considered an optical neuron?, :*)
A neuron is one nerve cell. The optical nerve consists of many neurons.
Sensory neurons are all neurons that belong to nerves that provide your brain with sensory input. Optical neurons are one sub-category of those. Other subcategories are your other senses, hearing, smell, taste and touch.
As the function of the neurons in your optical nerve is to provide your brain with optical sensory input, the neurons in your optical nerve are indeed both sensory neurons and optical neurons.
The optic nerve is a special sensory nerve, meaning it is reponsible for one of the five senses, and it is composed of axons from sensory neurons. They are sensory because they are delivering visual information to your brain.
