Solution

The correct option is C The nerve endings of ‘Q’ transmits impulses towards sensory neurons
The given figure illustrates a reflex arc, where I is a sensory neuron, P is a motor neuron and Q is a relay neuron. The relay neuron (here, Q) acts as a link between sensory neuron and motor neuron. It analyses and interprets the sensory impulse and then set up an appropriate motor impulse towards the motor neuron.
