About it
A neuron is a nerve cell, the kind of cell that carries messages around the brain and body. Its branching dendrites pick up signals, and a long wire called the axon carries them on to the tips, where they pass to the next cell.
Tap it to fire a signal: a bright spark runs from the cell body down the whole axon and bursts into light at the tips. Real nerve signals are tiny electrical pulses, and some travel at over 100 meters a second. The human brain has about 86 billion neurons.
