Which of the following is correct regarding Interneurons? - They are also called afferent neurons either contain sensory receptors at their distal ends (dendrites) or are located just after sensory receptors that are separate cells. - They are also called association neurons which are mainly located within the CNS between sensory and motor neurons. - All the options are correct regarding interneurons. - They are also called efferent neurons which convey action potentials away from the CNS to effectors (muscles and glands).

Choose the correct statement: a. Neurotransmitters diffuse across the myelin sheath. b. An inhibitory neurotransmitter makes it less likely that an action potential will be generated in the presynaptic (before the synapse) neuron. c. Neurotransmitters are stored in synaptic vesicles. d. Most interneurons are found in the peripheral nervous system.
Which of these statements about autonomic neurons is correct? a. They are motor neurons. b. Preganglionic neurons have cell bodies in the $\mathrm{CNS}$. c. Postganglionic neurons innervate smooth muscles, cardiac muscle, and glands. d. All of these are correct.
