These connect Sensory and Motor Neurons to each other and are located in the brain and spinal cord
A
Sensory Neurons
B
Motor Neurons
C
Interneurons
D
Afferent 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: -In the spinal cord the synapses between sensory and motor and interneurons occurs in the gray matter. The cell bodies of the interneurons and motor neurons also are found in the gray matter. white matter-an area of myelinated fiber tracts.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interneuron is the neuron that connects the sensory neuron and the motor neuron. They are present in the central nervous system. It collects sensory impulses and processess them to generates quick responses.

Detailed explanation-4: -Multipolar neurons are the most common type of neuron. They are located in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and in autonomic ganglia.

Detailed explanation-5: -The somatic nervous system connects the central nervous system with the body’s muscles and skin. Its primary function is to control voluntary movements and reflex arcs, while also helping us process the senses of touch, sound, taste, and smell.
