The Hebrew Word for atonement is âkipurâ with the verb form being âkapharâ and means âto cover, purge, make reconciliationâ and âto cover with or coat with pitch.â That last definition is very interesting because the same Hebrew word used for pitch is âkapharâ and that is what the Ark was covered with.
Sensory neurons are nerve cells that transmit sensory information (sight, sound, feeling, etc.). They are activated by sensory input, and send projections to other elements of the nervous system, ultimately conveying sensory information to the brain or spinal cord.
Four types of sensory neuron. Sensory neurons also known as afferent neurons are neurons that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded potentials. This process is called sensory transduction. The cell bodies of the sensory neurons are located in the dorsal ganglia of the spinal cord.
