The most accurate description of the role of sensory receptors in the sensory system is:
The sensory receptors detect information from one or more of the sensory organs. They then send a signal to the central nervous system.
This statement correctly explains that sensory receptors are responsible for detecting stimuli and relaying that information to the central nervous system for processing.
