Introduction to the neuron and its anatomy
More free lessons at: http://www.khanacademy.org/video?v=ob5U8zPbAX4
In my 2-Minute Neuroscience videos I simplistically explain neuroscience topics in 2 minutes or less. In this video, I discuss the neuron, briefly touching on all of the parts of a neuron including the dendrites, soma, axon hillock, axon, and axon terminals or synaptic boutons. I describe how a signal travels from the dendrites of a neuron, down the axon, and to the axon terminals to communicate with another neuron through the release of neurotransmitter.

Neurons or nerve cells - Structure and function | Human Anatomy | Biology
The nervous system is an essential part of the human body that helps in the transmission of signals across the various parts of the body, that is, it releases messages back and forth from the brain to the different parts of the body, and also helps in the coordination of voluntary and involuntary actions of the body.
At the cellular level, the nervous system consists of a special type of cell, called the neuron, also known as a "nerve cell". The neurons connect to each other using a synapse (which is a structure that acts like a pathway connection that transmits the signals to the other cells) to form the nervous system.
Neurons have special structures that allow them to send signals rapidly and precisely to other cells by providing a common pathway for the passage of these electrochemical nerve impulses.
Neurons are responsive in nature, by which we imply that Neurons response to feelings and communicate the presence of that feeling to the central nervous system which in-turn is processed and is sent to the other parts of the body for action.
The neurons are the basic constituents of the brain, vertebral spinal cord, the ventral nerve cord and the peripheral ganglia( which is a mass of nerve cell bodies). Nervous system
Neurons can be categorized into three types: sensory neurons, motor neurons and inter neurons.
Sensory neurons allow us to receive information from the outside world through our senses. The sensory neurons evoke the sensation of touch, pain, vision, hearing and taste. These are usually present in the sensory organs, like the eyes, inner ear and so on, which send these signals to the spinal cord and the brain.
Inter neurons communicate and connect with each other, and represent the majority of the neurons in our brain. They allow us to think see and perceive our surroundings.
Motor neurons are neurons that receive impulses from the spinal cord or the brain and send them to the muscles causing muscular contraction, and these also affect the gland secretion.
A typical neuron has a "soma" in its centre, which contains the nucleus of the cell. And hence this is where the protein synthesis occurs.
The neural function is based on the synaptic signalling (the pathway that helps in the transmission of signals) process, which is partly electrical and partly chemical. The electrical aspect depends on properties of the neuron's membrane. Every neuron is surrounded by a plasma membrane, which is a bilayer of lipid molecules that comprise of various protein structures. A lipid bilayer is a powerful electrical insulator, but in neurons, many of the protein structures embedded in the membrane are electrically active.
Cell division cannot take place in neurons as they lack one of the two cylindrical cellular structures that aid in cell division. This is consistent with a simple cell division nature of the cell.
Dendrites are extensions of the cell with many branches, whose structure can be called as a "dendritic tree" . They project from the cell body and are sometimes referred to as fibres. They are also called as afferent processes because they transmit impulses to the neuron cell body .
There is only one axon that projects from each cell body, which is a finer cable-like projector. It is usually elongated and it carries impulses away from the cell body, that is, away from the 'soma'. It is an efferent process.
many axons are surrounded by a segmented white fatty substance called myelin sheaths.

You will learn about "Structure of a Neuron" in this video. Neurons also known as the nerve cells are the basic building blocks of the nervous system that help in receiving, processing and transmitting information.
A neuron consists of 3 main components, i.e. the cell body or soma, dendrites and the axon. The cell body consists of the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Long thin fibres called nerve fibres stretch out of the cell body. The shorter fibres on the cell body are called dendrites. Axon is the longest fibre of a neuron. It has an insulating and protective sheath called the myelin sheath, which is made up of fats and proteins. The neurons carry messages in the form of electrical signals called nerve impulses. The dendrites pick up impulses from receptors, pass it to the cell body and the impulses then travel along the axon. Axon passes these impulses to another neuron through a junction called the synapse. In this way, the impulses are carried from one neuron to another and finally delivered to the brain or the spinal cord.

Transcript of the video:
What do we know about the inner workings of the human mind?
Surely everything that humans do from designing skyscrapers to composing
symphonies... is not the product of simple cellular interactions. And yet it might
be...because everything that humans do (or think or feel) is the result of the basic
units of brain structure - the neurons.
The human brain contains more than a hundred billion neurons. Just like a single
ant could never build an anthill, a single neuron can't think or feel or remember. A
neuron's power is a result of its connections to other neurons. Each neuron is
connected to as many as a thousand of its neighbors. These trillions of
connections provide the playing field upon which the complex activity of the brain
takes place. Each neuron can turn its neighbors on or off depending on the
signals it sends, and the resulting stable patterns of neuron firing represent
memories...and images... and thoughts.
We don't yet understand the relationship between neural activity and mental
experience. We don't know what the precise pattern of a memory or an image or
a thought looks like. We don't yet know how to read the cerebral "code" of the
neurons. But progress is being made. We can now watch exactly how various
stimuli and memories cause the firings of hundreds of neurons. Perhaps these
techniques will allow us to work our way UP from the activity of a few neurons to
see the structure that emerges from the whole.

Action Potential Explained - The Neuron. An Action potential is the neurons way of transporting electrical signals from one cell to the next. This is a picture of a neuron, where you have dendrites in one end, and the axon terminal in the other end. In the middle of the neuron you will find the axon, which is where the electrical signal will travel from the dendrites to the axon terminal to the synapse. This is a picture of a myelinated neuron, which is covered with a myelin sheath that allows the electrical signal to travel faster through the axon. So instead of activating every ion channel down the axon, only channels in the small spaces between each myelin sheath called the Node of Ranvier is activated and generates an action potential. So lets take a closer look at the axon.
On the membrane of the neuron, you will find small ion channels that are closed when the cell is in its resting state.
The neuron is able to create an action potential because of the concentration difference of ions between the intracellular space and the extracellular space. There is a higher concentration of sodium ions outside the neuron and a higher concentration of potassium inside the neuron. the extracellular space is more positive than inside the neuron. This creates a voltage difference of -- 70 mV, which is created with the help of leaky ion channels that are more permeable to potassium ions than sodium ions, which will cause potassium to leave the cell and only small amount of sodium to enter. The sodium potassium pump also regulates the intracellular environment, by pumping out 3 sodium ions in exchange for 2 potassium ions.
The -- 70 mV is the neurons resting potential, but when the neuron is stimulated by a presynaptic neuron, it causes sodium channels to open, letting in positive ions. This will change the electrical environment and make it more positive on the inside and less positive on the outside. This is called Depolarization, and which causes a chain reaction where the next sodium channels will open letting in positive ions, all the way down the axon.
Shortly after a channels have opened, they will close again and potassium channels will then open letting out positive potassium ions, to recreate the negative environment inside the neuron and the positive environment outside. This happens at around + 40 mV, and causes a Repolarization where the intracellular space is becoming negative again. The neuron then reaches a state of Hyperpolarization where the cell has let out too many ions and has now become more negative than the cells resting potential. This is quickly corrected by the leaky channels and the sodium potassium pump, and the neuron stabilize at the resting potential at a -- 70 mV.
The action potential that has traveled through the axon, reaches the axon terminal, where vesicles with neurotransmitters are released out into the synaptic cleft to transport the signal to another neuron.

A neuron (
/ˈnjʊərɒn/ NEWR-on; also known as a neurone or nerve cell) is an electrically excitable cell that processes and transmits information by electrical and chemical signaling. Chemical signaling occurs via synapses, specialized connections with other cells. Neurons connect to each other to form neural networks. Neurons are the core components of the nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral ganglia. A number of specialized types of neurons exist: sensory neurons respond to touch, sound, light and numerous other stimuli affecting cells of the sensory organs that then send signals to the spinal cord and brain. Motor neurons receive signals from the brain and spinal cord, cause muscle contractions, and affect glands. Interneurons connect neurons to other neurons within the same region of the brain or spinal cord.
A typical neuron possesses a cell body (often called the soma), dendrites, and an axon. Dendrites are thin structures that arise from the cell body, often extending for hundreds of micrometres and branching multiple times, giving rise to a complex "dendritic tree". An axon is a special cellular extension that arises from the cell body at a site called the axon hillock and travels for a distance, as far as 1 m in humans or even more in other species. The cell body of a neuron frequently gives rise to multiple dendrites, but never to more than one axon, although the axon may branch hundreds of times before it terminates. At the majority of synapses, signals are sent from the axon of one neuron to a dendrite of another. There are, however, many exceptions to these rules: neurons that lack dendrites, neurons that have no axon, synapses that connect an axon to another axon or a dendrite to another dendrite, etc.

2-Minute Neuroscience: The Neuron
In my 2-Minute Neuroscience videos I simplistically explain neuroscience topics in 2 minutes or less. In this video, I discuss the neuron, briefly touching on all of the parts of a neuron including the dendrites, soma, axon hillock, axon, and axon terminals or synaptic boutons. I describe how a signal travels from the dendrites of a neuron, down the axon, and to the axon terminals to communicate with another neuron through the release of neurotransmitter.

Structure of a Neuron
You will learn about "Structure of a Neuron" in this video. Neurons also known as the nerve cells are the basic building blocks of the nervous system that help in receiving, processing and transmitting information. A neuron consists of 3 main components, i.e. the cell body or soma, dendrites and the axon. The cell body consists of the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Long thin fibres called nerve fibres stretch out of the cell body. The shorter fibres on the cell body are called dendrites. Axon is the longest fibre of a neuron. It has an insulating and protective sheath called the myelin sheath, which is made up of fats and proteins. The neurons carry messages in the form of electrical signals called nerve impulses. The dendrites pick up impulses from receptors, pass it to the cell body and the... -

Action Potential Explained - The Neuron
Action Potential Explained - The Neuron. An Action potential is the neurons way of transporting electrical signals from one cell to the next. This is a picture of a neuron, where you have dendrites in one end, and the axon terminal in the other end. In the middle of the neuron you will find the axon, which is where the electrical signal will travel from the dendrites to the axon terminal to the synapse. This is a picture of a myelinated neuron, which is covered with a myelin sheath that allows the electrical signal to travel faster through the axon. So instead of activating every ion channel down the axon, only channels in the small spaces between each myelin sheath called the Node of Ranvier is activated and generates an action potential. So lets take a closer look at the axon. On the mem... -

Neuron Activity in 3-D
Researchers at MIT and the University of Vienna have created an imaging system that reveals neural activity throughout the brains of living animals. This technique, the first that can generate 3-D movies of entire brains at the millisecond timescale, could help scientists discover how neuronal networks process sensory information and generate behavior. The team used the new system to simultaneously image the activity of every neuron in the worm Caenorhabditis elegans, as well as the entire brain of a zebrafish larva, offering a more complete picture of nervous system activity than has been previously possible. The new approach, described May 18 in Nature Methods, could also help neuroscientists learn more about the biological basis of brain disorders. "We don't really know, for any brain... -

Neurons or nerve cells - Structure and function | Human Anatomy | Biology
The nervous system is an essential part of the human body that helps in the transmission of signals across the various parts of the body, that is, it releases messages back and forth from the brain to the different parts of the body, and also helps in the coordination of voluntary and involuntary actions of the body.
At the cellular level, the nervous system consists of a special type of cell, called the neuron, also known as a "nerve cell". The neurons connect to each other using a synapse (which is a structure that acts like a pathway connection that transmits the signals to the other cells) to form the nervous system.
Neurons have special structures that allow them to send signals rapidly and precisely to other cells by providing a common pathway for the passage of these electrochemical nerve impulses.
Neurons are responsive in nature, by which we imply that Neurons response to feelings and communicate the presence of that feeling to the central nervous system which in-turn is processed and is sent to the other parts of the body for action.
The neurons are the basic constituents of the brain, vertebral spinal cord, the ventral nerve cord and the peripheral ganglia( which is a mass of nerve cell bodies). Nervous system
Neurons can be categorized into three types: sensory neurons, motor neurons and inter neurons.
Sensory neurons allow us to receive information from the outside world through our senses. The sensory neurons evoke the sensation of touch, pain, vision, hearing and taste. These are usually present in the sensory organs, like the eyes, inner ear and so on, which send these signals to the spinal cord and the brain.
Inter neurons communicate and connect with each other, and represent the majority of the neurons in our brain. They allow us to think see and perceive our surroundings.
Motor neurons are neurons that receive impulses from the spinal cord or the brain and send them to the muscles causing muscular contraction, and these also affect the gland secretion.
A typical neuron has a "soma" in its centre, which contains the nucleus of the cell. And hence this is where the protein synthesis occurs.
The neural function is based on the synaptic signalling (the pathway that helps in the transmission of signals) process, which is partly electrical and partly chemical. The electrical aspect depends on properties of the neuron's membrane. Every neuron is surrounded by a plasma membrane, which is a bilayer of lipid molecules that comprise of various protein structures. A lipid bilayer is a powerful electrical insulator, but in neurons, many of the protein structures embedded in the membrane are electrically active.
Cell division cannot take place in neurons as they lack one of the two cylindrical cellular structures that aid in cell division. This is consistent with a simple cell division nature of the cell.
Dendrites are extensions of the cell with many branches, whose structure can be called as a "dendritic tree" . They project from the cell body and are sometimes referred to as fibres. They are also called as afferent processes because they transmit impulses to the neuron cell body .
There is only one axon that projects from each cell body, which is a finer cable-like projector. It is usually elongated and it carries impulses away from the cell body, that is, away from the 'soma'. It is an efferent process.
many axons are surrounded by a segmented white fatty substance called myelin sheaths.

A neuron consists of 3 main components, i.e. the cell body or soma, dendrites and the axon. The cell body consists of the cytoplasm and the nucleus.

It has an insulating and protective sheath called the myelin sheath, which is made up of fats and proteins. The neurons carry messages in the form of electrical signals called nerve impulses. The dendrites pick up impulses from receptors, pass it to the cell body and the impulses then travel along the axon. Axon passes these impulses to another neuron through a junction called the synapse. In this way, the impulses are carried from one neuron to another and finally delivered to the brain or the spinal cord.

Transcript of the video:
What do we know about the inner workings of the human mind?
Surely everything that humans do from designing skyscrapers to composing
symphonies... is not the product of simple cellular interactions. And yet it might
be...because everything that humans do (or think or feel) is the result of the basic
units of brain structure - the neurons.
The human brain contains more than a hundred billion neurons. Just like a single
ant could never build an anthill, a single neuron can't think or feel or remember. A
neuron's power is a result of its connections to other neurons. Each neuron is
connected to as many as a thousand of its neighbors. These trillions of
connections provide the playing field upon which the complex activity of the brain
takes place. Each neuron can turn its neighbors on or off depending on the
signals it sends, and the resulting stable patterns of neuron firing represent
memories...and images... and thoughts.
We don't yet understand the relationship between neural activity and mental
experience. We don't know what the precise pattern of a memory or an image or
a thought looks like. We don't yet know how to read the cerebral "code" of the
neurons. But progress is being made. We can now watch exactly how various
stimuli and memories cause the firings of hundreds of neurons. Perhaps these
techniques will allow us to work our way UP from the activity of a few neurons to
see the structure that emerges from the whole.

Action Potential Explained - The Neuron. An Action potential is the neurons way of transporting electrical signals from one cell to the next. This is a picture of a neuron, where you have dendrites in one end, and the axon terminal in the other end. In the middle of the neuron you will find the axon, which is where the electrical signal will travel from the dendrites to the axon terminal to the synapse. This is a picture of a myelinated neuron, which is covered with a myelin sheath that allows the electrical signal to travel faster through the axon. So instead of activating every ion channel down the axon, only channels in the small spaces between each myelin sheath called the Node of Ranvier is activated and generates an action potential. So lets take a closer look at the axon.
On the membrane of the neuron, you will find small ion channels that are closed when the cell is in its resting state.
The neuron is able to create an action potential because of the concentration difference of ions between the intracellular space and the extracellular space. There is a higher concentration of sodium ions outside the neuron and a higher concentration of potassium inside the neuron. the extracellular space is more positive than inside the neuron. This creates a voltage difference of -- 70 mV, which is created with the help of leaky ion channels that are more permeable to potassium ions than sodium ions, which will cause potassium to leave the cell and only small amount of sodium to enter. The sodium potassium pump also regulates the intracellular environment, by pumping out 3 sodium ions in exchange for 2 potassium ions.
The -- 70 mV is the neurons resting potential, but when the neuron is stimulated by a presynaptic neuron, it causes sodium channels to open, letting in positive ions. This will change the electrical environment and make it more positive on the inside and less positive on the outside. This is called Depolarization, and which causes a chain reaction where the next sodium channels will open letting in positive ions, all the way down the axon.
Shortly after a channels have opened, they will close again and potassium channels will then open letting out positive potassium ions, to recreate the negative environment inside the neuron and the positive environment outside. This happens at around + 40 mV, and causes a Repolarization where the intracellular space is becoming negative again. The neuron then reaches a state of Hyperpolarization where the cell has let out too many ions and has now become more negative than the cells resting potential. This is quickly corrected by the leaky channels and the sodium potassium pump, and the neuron stabilize at the resting potential at a -- 70 mV.
The action potential that has traveled through the axon, reaches the axon terminal, where vesicles with neurotransmitters are released out into the synaptic cleft to transport the signal to another neuron.

Researchers at MIT and the University of Vienna have created an imaging system that reveals neural activity throughout the brains of living animals. This technique, the first that can generate 3-D movies of entire brains at the millisecond timescale, could help scientists discover how neuronal networks process sensory information and generate behavior.
The team used the new system to simultaneously image the activity of every neuron in the worm Caenorhabditis elegans, as well as the entire brain of a zebrafish larva, offering a more complete picture of nervous system activity than has been previously possible.
The new approach, described May 18 in Nature Methods, could also help neuroscientists learn more about the biological basis of brain disorders. "We don't really know, for any brain disorder, the exact set of cells involved," Boyden says. "The ability to survey activity throughout a nervous system may help pinpoint the cells or networks that are involved with a brain disorder, leading to new ideas for therapies."
