What is the meant by neurological connections in the brain cells?
Neurological connections refer to the communication pathways between brain cells, known as neurons. These connections allow neurons to transmit electrical and chemical signals to one another, enabling various brain functions like thinking, feeling, and moving. The strength and formation of these connections can change over time in response to experiences, learning, and development.
What are the specialized connections between nerve cells and regular human cells?
NERONS
What are the membrane connections that prevent the leaking of fluid between cells?
tight junctions
Which allowed the structure and function of his brain cells to change to adjust to the trauma?
Neuroplasticity is the term that describes the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections. This process allows the brain cells to change their structure and function in response to experiences such as trauma, enabling the brain to adapt and recover.
How does development of the brain occur?
The development of the brain occurs through a process called neurogenesis, where nerve cells are generated. This begins in the early stages of prenatal development and continues throughout childhood. As a child learns and experiences new things, the connections between nerve cells (synapses) strengthen, leading to the formation and refinement of neural networks that shape cognitive and emotional functions.
What is the name give to the connections between the nerve cells in our brain?
"synapses"
The development of new connections between brain cells is called?
It is called synaptogenesis.

Why is it harder to learn something when you are older?
Because your brain doesn't make new connections between the nerve cells as fast as it did when you were young.
Why does an older person's brain not work as well as a younger person's brain?
As you get very old your brain cells die and also are slower to form connections.
How kids retain the asnwer?
kids have 'fluid intelligence' - since their brain connections between neurons (brain cells) are just developing, new information is retained much better than in adults, where much less brain development occurs
What are gap junctions in cells?
They are connections between animal cells which connects the cytoplasm between the cells; in neurons, they are electrical synapses.
What are the specialized connections between nerve cells and regular human cells?
NERONS
Why do brain cells not regenerate?
Brain cells, also known as neurons, do not regenerate because they have limited ability to divide and replace themselves. Unlike other cells in the body, neurons have a complex structure and specialized functions that make it difficult for them to replicate and regenerate. Additionally, the brain has a delicate balance of connections between neurons that would be disrupted if new neurons were constantly being generated.
How do neuron cells divide and multiply to form the complex network of the brain?
Neuron cells divide through a process called mitosis, where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This allows for the multiplication of neuron cells in the brain. As these cells multiply, they form connections with other neurons, creating the complex network of the brain.
What is the connections between cardiac muscle cells called?
Intercalated disks
Which structure form connections for and communication between Like cells?
Gap junction
