How do sensory neurons and monitor neurons differ?

Sensory neurons carry sensory information from the body to the brain, while motor neurons carry signals from the brain to the body to control movement. Monitor neurons are specialized neurons that help regulate and coordinate the activity of other neurons in the nervous system.

What do the lower neurons do?

You are probably speaking of "lower motor neurons." These are neurons that send information from the spinal cord to the muscles of the body & they travel within all most of the nerves of the body (like sciatic, median, etc). These neurons are controlled by "upper motor neurons" and control your muscles to allow you to be able to move.
