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: -The Somatic Nervous System The somatic system is the part of the peripheral nervous system responsible for carrying sensory and motor information to and from the central nervous system.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-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.
