A neuron is a nerve cell that is the basic building block of the nervous system. Neurons are similar to other cells in the human body in a number of ways, but there is one key difference between neurons and other cells. Neurons are specialized to transmit information throughout the body.
A limited partner is a partner in a partnership whose liability is limited to the extent of the partner's share of ownership. Because he is not a material participant, The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) treats the income that a limited partner realizes from his partnership as passive income that he can offset with passive losses.
That is, limited partners invest a certain amount of money and have nothing else to do with the business. However, their liability is limited to the amount of the investment. In the worst case scenario for a limited partner, he/she loses what he/she invested. Profits are divided between general and limited partners according to an arrangement formed at the creation of the partnership.
