josephc@lemmy.ml 1 week agoThere are 86 billion neurons in the brain and 31* pairs of spinal column nerves with about 7 trillion interconnections. When I pulled that figure it wasn’t obvious if it included connections inside the brain, too.
*I found one article that said 43 pairs of nerves connected to the spinal cord and 12 to the brain, but Wikipedia says 31.
