Interneurons are neurons that communicate with other neurons. They are responsible for relaying information between sensory neurons and motor neurons, or between other interneurons. Motor neurons (A) carry signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands, while sensory neurons (B) carry information from sensory organs to the brain and spinal cord.
