Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Billions of neurons work together to create a communication network. Different neurons have different jobs. For example, sensory neurons send information from the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin to the brain. Motor neurons carry messages away from the brain to the rest of the body to allow muscles to move.

Detailed explanation-2: -A special cell called a neuron is responsible for carrying these messages. There are about 100 billion neurons in the human brain.

Detailed explanation-3: -Afferent neurons-take messages from the rest of the body and deliver them to the central nervous system (CNS). Interneurons-these relay messages between neurons in the CNS.

Detailed explanation-4: -Neurons that carry sensory impulse from sensory organs to the central nervous system are known as sensory neurons.
