Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

Sensory transduction is a process by which the sensory neuron transforms the obtained sensory information into an electric signal. Sensory neurons are the afferent neurons and are activated when they receive stimulus from a sensory receptor. This is followed by the firing of action potential to convey the sensory information into the CNS through the cranial or spinal nerve.

Change in temperature serves as a stimulus for thermosensory neurons present in the skin. The activated thermosensory neuron then produces an electric signal by the process of sensory transduction during which a nerve impulse is generated and action potential to convey the information.
