Some Interesting Facts

• 85 billion (85,000,000,000) neurons in the human brain.

• 3,000 years one cell/second • 1 neuron cell body = 10 microns wide

85,000,000,000 neurons = 850 km

• If you use a basketball (diameter = ~24 cm) as the cell body, then your axon would have to be 240,000 cm (2.4 kilometers)

in length!

► A baby's brain is a mystery.

► The mystery begins in the womb -- only four weeks into gestation the first brain cells, the neurons, are already forming at an astonishing rate: 250,000 every minute.

► Billions of neurons will form links with billions of other neurons and eventually there will be trillions and trillions of connections between cells.

► Every cell is precisely in its place, every link between neurons carefully organized. Nothing is random, nothing by chance.

Functions of the Nervous System1. Sensory input

· changes = stimuli

2. Integration· processing

3. Motor output· response to stimuli

(The response activates muscles or glands)
