The Amazing Human Brain!
- The human brain contains about 86 BILLION neurons (nerve cells)!
- Our brain is the largest brain out of all vertebrates (relative to body size).
- The human brain has more neurons per volume than any animal. The folds in the outer cortex make this possible.
- Our brains have the largest frontal lobes of any animal. The frontal lobes are associated with higher level thinking such as logic, planning, and self-control.
- The brain is divided into sections such as the cerebrum; brainstem; cerebellum; and the cerebral cortex, which consists of 4 lobes. Read more about what each section does here..
- What's my point? Your brain is amazing. God designed and created it. It is more advanced than any computer or iphone. It is unique among living things
