Sensory information from the periphery of the animal ascend through the [[Spinal Cord - Anatomy & Physiology|spinal cord]] and enters the higher levels of the brain. There are numerous pathways which allow different types of information to be passed to the brain. Types of general somatic sensation include pain, touch, temperature and kinaesthesia (conscious proprioception). This sensory information is sent to one of two destinations; the cerebral cortex or the cerebellum.
