The mature brain contains more than a hundred types of neurons. These may differ in the size and shape of their cell bodies or somata, in the size, shape and complexity of their dendritic trees, in the length and destination of their axons, in receptor repertoire, in neurotransmitter profile , in their mode of influencing other neurons (excitation versus inhibition), and so on.
