What type of Neuron transmits information from one neuron to the next in the Central nervous system?
A
Sensory Neurons
B
Sensory Neurons
C
Interneurons
D
Brain Neurons
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Interneurons. Interneurons, which are found only in the CNS, connect one neuron to another. They receive information from other neurons (either sensory neurons or interneurons) and transmit information to other neurons (either motor neurons or interneurons).

Detailed explanation-2: -Interneurons (also known as association neurons) are neurons that are found exclusively in the central nervous system. That means that they are found in the brain and spinal cord and not in the peripheral segments of the nervous system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sensory neurons typically have a long dendrite and short axon, and carry messages from sensory receptors to the central nervous system. Motor neurons have a long axon and short dendrites and transmit messages from the central nervous system to the muscles (or to glands).
