Introduction:
There are a billion of neurons in the body, which are connected with each other in small groups and are known as neuronal pools. A neural circuit is described as the connection patterns formed by a neuronal pool. The neural circuit works in five different ways: parallel processing, divergence, reverberation, convergence, and serial processing.
