where do you find neurons in the brain
Neuron The number of neurons in the brain varies dramatically from species to species.[38] The adult human brain contains about 85-86 billion neurons,[38][39] of which 16.3 billion are in the cerebral cortex and 69 billion in the cerebellum.[39] By contrast, the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans has just 302 neurons, making it an ideal experimental subject as scientists have been able to map all of the organism's neurons. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, a common subject in biological experiments, has around 100,000 neurons and exhibits many complex behaviors. Many properties of neurons, from the type of neurotransmitters used to ion channel composition, are maintained across species, allowing scientists to study processes occurring in more complex organisms in much simpler experimental systems.
Cerebrum The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain. Depending upon the position of the animal it lies either in front or on top of the brainstem. In humans, the cerebrum is the largest and best-developed of the five major divisions of the brain.
My Ántonia
Cerebellar tentorium It covers the top of the cerebellum, and supports the occipital lobes of the brain.
