The NHTSA reports that most accidents occur during rush hour, between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. And according to the NHTSA, Saturday is the most dangerous day of the week to drive, primarily because there are more cars â and more drunk drivers â on the road than any other day.
A neuron (/ËnjÊÉrÉn/ NYEWR-on or /ËnÊÉrÉn/ NEWR-on, also known as a neurone or nerve cell) is an electrically excitable cell that processes and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals. These signals between neurons occur via specialized connections called synapses.
Glial cells, sometimes called neuroglia or simply glia (Greek Î³Î»Î¿Î¯Î± glue; pronounced in English as either /ËÉ¡liËÉ/ or /ËÉ¡laÉªÉ/), are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons in the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.n general, neuroglial cells are smaller than neurons; there are about 86 billion neurons and 85 billion nonneuronal (glial) cells in the human male brain. Glial cells comprise about half the total volume of the brain and spinal cord.
