Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
According to function a neuron (interneuron) that forms bridges would
A
Transmit impulses from brain and spinal cords to muscles and glands directing action
B
Carry Impulses from skin and organs to the spinal cord and brain about the external and internal environment
C
Transmit impulses between other neurons
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Interneurons. As the name suggests, interneurons are the ones in between-they connect spinal motor and sensory neurons. As well as transferring signals between sensory and motor neurons, interneurons can also communicate with each other, forming circuits of various complexity.

Detailed explanation-2: -Associative neurons (also called interneurons.) They carry messages from afferent neurons to efferent neurons.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interneurons are the central nodes of neural circuits, enabling communication between sensory or motor neurons and the central nervous system (CNS).

Detailed explanation-4: -Sensory cells carry afferent impulses to a central interneuron, which makes contact with a motor neuron. The motor neuron carries efferent impulses to the effector, which produces the response.
