The Three Types of Neurons in the Nervous System of Humans

Question

The three types of neurons in the nervous system of humans are
A) interneurons, synaptic neurons, and neuroglia.
B) synaptic neurons, motor neurons, and Schwann cells.
C) sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons.
D) Schwann cells, sensory neurons, and neuroglia.
E) synaptic neurons, motor neurons, and sensory neurons.

Accepted Answer

The three types of neurons in the nervous system of humans are sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons. Sensory neurons receive information from sensory receptors and transmit it to the central nervous system. Interneurons are located within the central nervous system and participate in processing information. Motor neurons receive information from the central nervous system and transmit it to muscles or glands, resulting in movement or secretion.
