Accepted Answer

Interneurons are a type of neuron that is found only in the central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord. They serve as connections between sensory neurons and motor neurons, relaying information between them to help regulate and coordinate behavior. While there are other types of neurons found throughout the nervous system, interneurons are specifically located within the CNS.
