Sirius is around 8.5 light years away. Voyager 1 has been aimed along a path which will take it in the general direction of Sirius and I seem to recall that the estimated journey time is in the order of 300,000 years. Philip B Â· 1 year ago.
â¢ The parietal lobe processes sensory information from the whole bodyâfor example, information about pain, touch, and pressure. â¢ The occipital lobe processes visual information coming into the brain. â¢ The temporal lobe is in charge of making sense of the auditory information from the environment.
The somatosensory cortex integrates sensory information from the body, producing a map similar to that of the primary motor cortex. Transcript: The somatosensory cortex (postcentral gyrus) receives tactile information from the body.Sensory information is carried to the brain by neural pathways to the spinal cord, brainstem, and thalamus, which project to the somatosensory cortex (which in turns has numerous connections with other brain areas).he somatosensory cortex integrates sensory information from the body, producing a map similar to that of the primary motor cortex.
