Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interneurons are responsible for receiving signals from sensory neurons and transmitting signals to motor neurons. Therefore, they are involved in communication between neurons within the nervous system. They do not detect stimuli directly, control muscles or glands, nor do they have a long axon, as they generally function within shorter distances within the nervous system.
