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 is composed of neurons, glial cells, and blood vessels. The number of neurons is estimated at roughly 100 billion. During early pregnancy, neurons have shown to multiply at a rate of 250,000 neurons per minute. The adult human brain is estimated to contain 86Â±8 billion neurons, with a roughly equal number (85Â±10 billion) of non-neuronal cells.
