A neuron is a nerve cell. The brain is made up of approximately 100 billion neurons. Neurons are similar to other cells in the body in some ways such as: Neurons are surrounded by a membrane. Neurons have a nucleus that contains genes. Neurons contain cytoplasm, mitochondria and other organelles.
The human brain consists of about one billion neurons. Each neuron forms about 1,000 connections to other neurons, amounting to more than a trillion connections. If each neuron could only help store a single memory, running out of space would be a problem.
