Sensory neurons receive information from the outside world through our senses, interneurons connect and communicate with each other to allow thinking and perception, and motor neurons receive impulses from the brain and send them to muscles and glands to cause muscle contractions and secretions. The document discusses the three main types of neurons - sensory, interneuron, and motor neurons - and their basic functions.

o Receives signals from other
neurons through synapses
