Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Peripheral nerves carry the pain message through the process of transmission to the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Transduction is the conversion of physical stimuli to neural signals, perception is the interpretation of the neural signals as pain, and modulation is the regulation of pain by the nervous system.
