interneurons also known as: ASSOCIATION NEURONS
Within the spinal cord, there are interneurons which link sensory and motor neurons. In some cases though, the sensory neurons synapse directly onto the motoneurons for example the Ia afferent (sensory neuron from the spinal cord) has a monosynaptic (1 synapse) connection to alpha motoneurons in the spinal cord. This monosynaptic connection is the reason why stretch reflexes can occur rapidly.

interneuron
Interneurons(also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) are multipolar neurons that connects sensory neurons to motor neurons.
From sensory neurons to motor neurons
Sensory neuron
Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) send sensory signals from the body to the Central Nervous System. Their cell bodies are always found in a ganglion outside the central nervous system. Motor neurons (efferent neurons) send signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands of the body. Their cell bodies are always located in the central nervous system.
Sensory (afferent) neurons
An interneuron (also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) is a neuron that forms a connection between other neurons. Interneurons are neither motor nor sensory.

Motor neuron has got a motor.. but you have to peddle sensory neurons.

Motor Neuron and Sensory Neuron
actually we must say all neurons receive information. there are three types of neurons: 1.sensory neuron 2.motor neuron 3.relay neuron the sensory neurons receive information from receptor cells in sense organs and pass the information from sensory neuron to the other and pass the info to spinal cord where they are received by relay neuron. this neuron in turn passes the info to motor neurons which pass the info to cells in effectors and action is performed.relay neurons are messengers between sensory neuron and motor neuron in spinal cord.
1.sensory neuron- carry impulses from the sensory receptors to the Central Nervous System 2.motor neurons- carry impulses from the Central Nervous System to the muscles and glans 3.association neuron- relay impulses netween sensory and motor neurons -------------------- AD go to bookden.webs.com .. a website for booklovers.. thx
Sensory neuron
3 neurons are included in the reflex arc. They are: Afferent neurons (take the message to the spinal cord) (sensory) Association neurons (directs message to the efferent neuron and the brain) (report reflex to the brain) Efferent neurons (takes message to effector) (motor) Not all reflexes have interneurons.
What connects sensory and motor neuron is the impulse called interneuron or connector neuron are connected by means of electrical impulse called synape from sensory to motor neuron.
Associated Neurons a.k.a Interneurons, lie between motor and sensory neurons in neutral pathways where intergeneration occurs. Most interneurons are confined within the CNS.
