Answer:

The correct option is : c. there are almost equal numbers of glia cells and neurons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nervous system is a complex part of the human body, which transmits signals between different parts of the body and it is also responsible for the coordination of voluntary as well as involuntary actions.

The human brains consists of two main types of cells: the neurons and the glial cells or glia.

In a human brain, the total number of the neurons and the glial cells is roughly the same. But the proportion of the cells may vary in different parts of the brain.
