Solution

The statement that is NOT a consistent difference between sensory neurons and interneurons is "whether they are myelinated or not". Both sensory neurons and interneurons can be myelinated or unmyelinated. Myelination is not exclusive to either type of neuron, it depends more on the specific function and location of the neuron rather than whether it is a sensory neuron or an interneuron.
