Sensation is the distribution of stimuli over the body, while perception is the translation of action potentials for awareness of the stimulus.

Sensation is the interpretation of stimuli by the cerebral cortex, while perception is the conversion of stimuli into action potentials.

Nerve tracts convert stimuli into action potentials for transmission to the CNS.
