neurons

A neuron is a type of cell in your brain that helps you think and remember things.

When we talk about neurons, we usually mean the tiny cells inside our brain that send and receive messages. These messages are like little whispers between different parts of our brain, helping us learn new things, move our bodies, and even make memories. Think of it like a big telephone system where all these neurons are connected and talking to each other, sending signals back and forth at incredible speeds. When we're learning something new, millions of neurons might be working together to help store that information in our brain, so we can remember it later on.
