Nervous System, Neuron
The healthy human brain contains tens of billions of neurons, specialized cells that process and transmit information via electrical and chemical signals. Most neurons have three basic components: a cell body, multiple dendrites, and an axon. The cell body contains the nucleus, which houses the genetic blueprint that directs and regulates the cell's activities. Dendrites are branch-like structures that radiate from the cell body and collect information from other neurons. The axon is a cable-like structure that extends from the other end of the cell body and transmits messages to other neurons.
