Solution

All of these are types of neurons.

a. Afferent neurons, also known as sensory neurons, carry nerve impulses from receptors or sense organs toward the central nervous system.

b. Efferent neurons, also known as motor neurons, carry nerve impulses away from the central nervous system to effectors such as muscles or glands.

c. Interneurons, also known as connector neurons or association neurons, are located within the central nervous system and carry messages between neurons (from afferent to efferent neurons).

So, the answer is d. All of these.
