B) It receives processed information from the brain, causing the muscles of the arm and hands to remove the mosquito from the arm.

The motor neuron in cases of emergency response co-ordinate with the spinal cord for quick reaction or response. As the sensory neuron receives information from the sense organ (skin in this case), they carry the information to the motor neuron via neural network. Motor neuron is connected by several inter neurons. The impulse produced by a mosquito reaches the lower motor neuron and from there it is send to the upper motor neuron which produces voluntary reflex messages and these messages are then send to hand to remove the mosquito.
