Sensory endorgans compose the peripheral endings of all Dorsal Root Ganglial neurons and to some cranial nerve ganglion cells. Specialized dorsal ganglion root sensory neurons of cranial nerves end on receptor cells for taste, vestibular and auditory system. These receptor cells liberate synaptic transmitter onto the cranial nerve ending. Visual and olfactory systems are special considerations to be described later.
