Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Motor neurons and interneurons are examples of:
A
anaxonic
B
bipolar
C
multipolar
D
tripolar
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. They are multipolar, just like motor neurons.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sensory neurons carry signals from the outer parts of your body (periphery) into the central nervous system. Motor neurons (motoneurons) carry signals from the central nervous system to the outer parts (muscles, skin, glands) of your body. Interneurons connect various neurons within the brain and spinal cord.

Detailed explanation-3: -An example of a multipolar neuron is a Purkinje cell in the cerebellum, which has many branching dendrites but only one axon. Pseudounipolar cells share characteristics with both unipolar and bipolar cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -association neuron. internuncial neuron. intercalary neuron. relay neuron. 24-Feb-2022
