This might be an odd question, but what do neurons prefer? They do react to sounds, you know. And sometimes they gravitate to certain kinds of stimuli. Some even respond to music, like we humans. Why are we talking about this? Because these are questions that informed neuroscience specialists. These scientists capture the "spikes" that…
