what is the role of interneurons?
are responsible for the production of new neurons in the brain.
help with the transmission of sensory information to the brain.
produce hormones and regulate the endocrine system.
control voluntary movements of the body.
connect neurons within the brain and spinal cord and are responsible for processing and integrating information.

Explanation:

Interneurons are found in the central - nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Their main function is to connect other neurons and process and integrate information received from sensory neurons and send signals to motor neurons. They are not involved in neuron production, sensory - info transmission to the brain (that's sensory neurons), hormone production (endocrine system), or control of voluntary movements (motor neurons).

Answer:

Connect neurons within the brain and spinal cord and are responsible for processing and integrating information.
