In the context of how pain registers in our nervous system, "register" refers to the process by which sensory information from the body is detected and transmitted to the brain for interpretation.
These are specialized cells in our body that detect different types of stimuli, such as heat or pressure.
This term refers to the relay of sensory information from one neuron to another within the nervous system.
Once the sensory information reaches the brain, this term describes how it is analyzed and understood.
