1. The neuron (nerve cell) are the basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system in an organism. 

2. They are everywhere in your body. You have nerves in your fingertips and your eyelids. You have nerves going to your digestive system that tell you when you ate way too much. You have major sensory nerves for seeing (optic nerve) and hearing (auditory nerve) and smelling (olfactory nerve).

3. The basic purpose of a neuron is to receive incoming information and, based upon that information, send a signal to other neurons, muscles, or glands. They perform the function of transmitting electrical impulses and signals to the brain from tissues and from brain to tissues.
