Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurons that are entirely contained within the brain or spinal cord are localized to a specific region and are not involved in transmitting signals to or from the senses or the muscles. These interneurons function to integrate and process information within the central nervous system, allowing for complex sensory and motor behaviors. Thus, the best choice for classifying these neurons is B) interneurons.
