Neuron is the basic brain cell. It has SOMA in the middle, Dendrite trees, and
Synapses at both the ends. Axon is a path that connects soma to the synapses.
Dendrites have large surface areas. Soma is either pyramidal or cylindrical shape.
The boundary or skin is called membrane that separates the intra and extra cellular
fluids.

Threshold is the minimum level that needs to be reached before a neuron can
fire an electric signal called synapse.

Neural networks involve the study of human brain and possible simulation into a
computer robot or an Android agent.
