The weight of a neuron can vary significantly depending on its type and location in the nervous system, but on average, a single neuron weighs about 1 nanogram (1 billionth of a gram). Neurons are composed of various cellular components, including the cell body, dendrites, and axon, which all contribute to their overall mass. However, the functional weight of a neuron is often considered in terms of its synaptic connections and electrical activity rather than its physical mass.
