Motor neurons
A
the animal’s reaction to the stimulus
B
found in the brain and spinal cord and allow sensory and motor neurons to communicate
C
nerve cells that detect stimuli
D
nerve cells that carry response information to muscles and other organs
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Motor neurons of the spinal cord are part of the central nervous system (CNS) and connect to muscles, glands and organs throughout the body. These neurons transmit impulses from the spinal cord to skeletal and smooth muscles (such as those in your stomach), and so directly control all of our muscle movements.

Detailed explanation-2: -Neurons carry messages from the brain via the spinal cord. The neurons that carry these messages to the muscles are called motor neurons.

Detailed explanation-3: -Motor neurons get information from other neurons and convey commands to your muscles, organs and glands.

Detailed explanation-4: -The spinal cord is a vital aspect of the CNS found within the vertebral column. The purpose of the spinal cord is to send motor commands from the brain to the peripheral body as well as to relay sensory information from the sensory organs to the brain.

Detailed explanation-5: -Spinal nerves carry somatosensory information into and motor instructions out of the spinal cord. They arise from the spinal cord as nerve roots and merge to form a web (plexus) of interconnected nerve roots and once again branch to form nerve fibers.
