Neural networks refer to

A) the branching extensions of a neuron.
B) interrelated clusters of neurons in the central nervous system.
C) neural "cables" containing many axons.
D) junctions between sending and receiving neurons.

Neural Networks

Computing systems vaguely inspired by the biological neural networks that constitute animal brains, used in machine learning and artificial intelligence.

Central Nervous System

The complex of nerve tissues that controls the activities of the body, comprising the brain and spinal cord.

Neuron Branching Extensions

Refers to dendrites, the tree-like extensions from the neuron that receive signals from other neurons.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Neural networks are clusters of neurons in the central nervous system that are interrelated and work together to process and transmit information. They are responsible for much of our cognitive and behavioral functions, such as learning, memory, and decision making. A neural network does not refer to the branching extensions of a single neuron (A), neural cables (C), or junctions between sending and receiving neurons (D).
