Neuronal dendride is capable of performing computations individually

                                     There are an estimated 100 billions neurons in brain,and there could be as many as one billion dendrites to connect them and facillitate communications.Each neuron can be connected to as many as 1000 other neurons.While it was previosly believed that dendrites merely pass the information along ,a new study has shown that the electrical signals associated with processing visual information can be found in dendrites themselves.
