@Caroline-99 please review

definition: A neuron type that is located in a peripheral nervous system and it transmits sensory information from the peripheral (PNS) to the central nervous system (CNS). A sensory neuron converts physical (light, sound, touch) or chemical (such as taste and smell) stimuli into an electrical signal through a process known as sensory transduction. The function of a sensory neuron is to carry informations from the external environment and internal body conditions to the central nervous system for further processing.

@aleixpuigb I want to cite a book as a source, what is the best way to input it in protege? just as a URL? Thank you!

comments: Typically, a sensory neuron has a pseudounipolar morphology.
