this is my oc neuro, its a neuron and i wanted to make it look like a diagram ^_^

its meant to be a cat looking thing

woah htis is geting attentoin thank yall1!! follow if u wanna see more o f this gober.. an its friends..!

In a study of fruit fly (Drosophila) larvae, an international team of researchers has discovered how swallowing food is linked to the release of the feel-good chemical serotonin in the brain – offering new insight into how and why animals eat. If the same mechanisms are present in humans, then this could be a fascinating insight into our own drive to consume food and drink.

Would you guys still respect me after knowing I made an Osmosis Jones oc???/jj

Her name is Dendrite and she's an Alphys/Jesse Pinkman coded neuron. Goofy ass

"A typical neuron makes about ten thousand connections to neighboring neurons. Given the billions of neurons, this means there are as many connections in a single cubic centimeter of brain tissue as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy." - David Eagleman

From conveying precise instruction to evoking entire new worlds, words and their meanings are central to our existence as humans. But how the multitude of cells making up a human brain take abstract noises or symbols and convert them into something with meaning has long been a mystery. New techniques that can track brain activity down to a single neuron are now revealing exactly where this sound translation takes place within our minds.
