Neurons are specialized cells that transmit chemical and electrical signals to facilitate communication between the brain and the body. Detail the structures and functions of each type of neuron. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit chemical and electrical signals in the brain; they are the basic building blocks of the central nervous system.
There are 10 billion neurons that are interconnected in the brain. Neurons communicate with each other by using biochemical reactions. The main goal of neuron is to bring important information about the world to the brain, or to cause a change in a target cell such as a muscle or glandular cell (Lewis, 1999).ach neuron is made up of three main components: 1. a cell body which is also called a soma. 2. a nerve fiber which is called an axon. 3. a system of branches called dendrites. The cell body contains the cell nucleus, and cytoplasm with a lot of different organelles in the cytoplasm.
