| Types of Neurons |
|
| Based on their structure and function, the neurons are classified into three: |
| |
|
| |
| The neurons that conduct impulses from the receptors or sense organs to the central nervous system are called the sensory neurons. |
| |
 |
| |
| Sensory Neurons |
| |
|
| |
| The neurons that conduct impulses from the central nervous system to the effectors (muscles or glands) are called the motor neurons. |
| |
 |
| |
| Motor Neuron |
| |
|
| |
| The neurons present in the brain that connect the sensory and the motor neurons are called interneurons or connecting neurons |
