... There are an estimated 100 to 180 billion neurons in the nervous system. Each neuron is an individually functioning unit, and yet they all coordinate (or work "in concert") each other. Nerves are made up of long groups of interconnecting neurons. There are many different sizes and shapes of neurons. ...

Haemodynamic response
In haemodynamics, the body must respond to physical activities, external temperature, and other factors by homeostatically adjusting its blood flow to deliver nutrients such as oxygen and glucose to stressed tissues and allow them to function. Haemodynamic response (HR) allows the rapid delivery of blood to active neuronal tissues. Since higher processes in the brain occur almost constantly, cerebral blood flow is essential for the maintenance of neurons, astrocytes, and other cells of the brain.
