Metabolistically, it is the tissue cell requiring mental impulses, blood and serum.
A brain cell is a cell of the nervous tissue- one of the 4 primary tissues. It has many of the characteristics of other tissue cells, having a body and a nucleus. Its widest difference from other cells is its branches [axons]. It has many branches; in fact it has so many of them, that a drawing or photograph of a brain cell looks like the map of the Amazon River.
Very long axons [branches] pass from brain cells through the foramen magum of the cranium. There are so many of these, that they form a cylinder called the spinal cord. Through this cord the axons pass to the spinal nerves, which branch and ramify to all parts [cells] of the body.
