Neurons

All neurons have a similar makeup, which can be seen to the right. I'm not gonna explain all that lmao. There are three types of neurons:

Sensory neurons
Bipolar neuron: Found in the retina, real small, has only one dendrite and axon.

Somatosensory neuron: Brings sensory information to the spinal cord for the somatosensory system. The dendrite connects directly to the axon, with the cell body on the side.

Interneurons
Pyramidal cell: Carries information from the cortex to the rest of the CNS. Has two sets of dendrites, a long axon and a pyramid-shaped cell body.

Purkinje cell: Carries information from the cerebellum to the rest of the CNS. Has a fuckton of dendrite branches.

Motor neurons
Have long axons and a lot of dendrites. Mostly found in the lower brainstem and the spinal cord.

Radial glial cells
Glial cells that, during brain development, extend from the subventricular zone to the surface of the cortex, guiding neurons to the right cortical layer.

Maturation
Neurons which are at their proper place during brain development start to mature; they grow axons and dendrites. The axons find their target by their growing tips called growth cones. These send out shoots called filopodia. When a filopod finds a target, the rest of the axon follows. The cues that they follow are CAMs and tropic molecules, which are secreted by cells either telling them to come there or not.
