Which type of neuron is most abundant

1 answer

The most abundant type of neuron in the human brain is the interneuron. Interneurons play a critical role in processing information within local circuits and are responsible for relaying signals between sensory and motor neurons as well as communicating with each other within the brain and spinal cord. While there are also motor neurons and sensory neurons, interneurons outnumber them significantly, making them essential for complex neural processes and reflexes.
