Description

Interneurons are a type of neuron that connect other neurons within the central nervous system. They play a crucial role in processing information and coordinating reflexes by transmitting signals between sensory and motor neurons.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that 'interneuronas' may not be as commonly used in everyday conversation and could be confused with terms like 'neuronas motoras' or 'neuronas sensoriales'. It is important to maintain a formal register and use the correct terminology in clinical settings. Avoid colloquial terms that may arise in informal discussions.

Example Sentences

EN: Interneurons are essential for the proper functioning of reflex arcs in the spinal cord.

ES: Las interneuronas son esenciales para el correcto funcionamiento de los arcos reflejos en la médula espinal.

Common Interpreter Mistakes

Confusing 'interneurons' with 'motor neurons'; using informal terms instead of 'interneuronas'; mispronouncing 'interneuronas' as if it were 'interneuronas' with an incorrect stress.
