Answer:
Santi is walking barefoot through his yard when he steps on a sharp rock. The skin on the bottom of his foot sends this information through a(n) <em>sensory</em> neuron to his CNS. A(n) <em>interneuron</em> picks up this information and carries it to <em>motor neurons of the CNS</em>, which sends a signal to the muscles in his foot causing his foot to pull away from the rock.
Explanation:
The scenarios discussed in the question is known as a reflex action. In this action, specific receptors detect specific stimuli. For example, pain in the barefoot due to steeping on a sharp rock was the stimuli. This stimulus was detected by the sensory neurons. The sensory neurons turned this information into a chemical signal which was transported by the interneurons to the motor neurons of the CNS. The CNS detected the signal and gave information for a response as a result of which Santi pulled back his feet.
