• Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) carry signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
• Interneurons are located within the central nervous system and act as a bridge between sensory and motor neurons.
• Efferent neurons (motor neurons) carry signals from the central nervous system (like the gray matter of the spinal cord) to muscles or glands.
