Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Interneurons are a type of neuron that exist exclusively in the central nervous system. They have many dendrites that receive signals from other neurons, and one short axon that sends signals to other neurons. This allows them to integrate and process information from multiple sources before transmitting signals to other neurons.
