The correct response is:

**axons in motor neurons**

When you see a mosquito land on your hand, sensory neurons transmit the information from your eyes to your brain. The brain processes this information and sends a signal to your motor neurons to initiate a swatting action. The axons of motor neurons carry this signal to your muscles, causing the final swatting movement.
