Explanation:

Sensory neurons carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system. The cell bodies of sensory neurons in the spinal cord are located in the dorsal root ganglia. The thalamus is a relay center in the brain. The ventral root ganglia contain motor neuron cell bodies. Sympathetic ganglia are part of the autonomic nervous system (not the main location for sensory neuron cell bodies in the spinal - cord related sensory pathways).

Answer:

C. the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord
