Neuron is the basic fundamental and structural unit or cell of our main organ of the body brain.This are some facts about neuron:-
-Neurons are specific, unique kinds of cells in our bodies that carry information through electrical and chemical signals. Neurons are a core component of our nervous system, which includes both the brain and the spinal cord.
-Neurons are discrete, autonomous cells that interact but are not physically connected.
-They send electrical signals that have a chemical basis.They communicate with one another by using chemical signals.
-Rate of neuron growth during development of a fetus (in the womb) is about 250,000 neurons/minute
-Diameter of a neuron is 4 to 100 microns.4.
