After the second order neuron synapses on a
a. 1st
b. 2nd
c. 3rd
order neuron, the axon of that neuron extends up into the
a. primary motor cortex located in the frontal lobe
b. somatosensory cortex located in the frontal lobe
c. somatosensory cortex located in the parietal lobe
d. primary motor cortex located in the parietal lobe

The correct answer is option C- somatosensory cortex located in the parietal lobe.

Explanation:

The somatosensory pathway is the ascending pathway of neurons that transmits the signals from the body to the brain. It begins with the first-order neuron in which the action potential is generated in the response to the stimulus. This first-order neuron transmits the signals to second-order neurons in the dorsal root ganglion.

The second-order neurons transmit the signals from the primary neurons to the third-order neurons in the thalamus which further transmits the signals to the "postcentral gyrus of the somatosensory cortex present in the parietal lobe."

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

answer: tell your parents first, and wait another couple of days. if it gets any worse, then you should call and ask. and you can always take pain meds if need be.
