(You can roll your mouse over the picture of the brain above to find out more about the parts of the brain.). Neurons. Every part of the brainâand the rest of the nervous system, for that matterâcontain neurons (more than 100 billion of them in all). Neurons are nerve cells with some very special properties.
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.
