Solution

The correct option is C
Interneurons

Interneurons are located entirely within the CNS and make up about 99% of all the neurons present. The brain and spinal cord are mainly formed by neorons and glial cells. These are located between afferent and efferent neurons, and hence work to integrate all the information and response from these neurons together.
