Some amazing facts about our BRAIN:
è
There are no pain
receptors in our BRAIN . that’s why surgeons can conduct surgery of BRAIN when
the patient is still awake..
è
There is around 100
thousand miles of blood vessels in our BRAIN..
è
There is around 100
billion neuron cells in our BRAIN,, just same as number of stars in galaxy..
è
Our BRAIN uses 17%
of our body’s energy & around 20% of oxygen,, while constitutes only 2% of
its mass..
è
There are around
100 trillion synapses that connect the neuron cells in our BRAIN (enough to
store 1000 terabytes of information)..
è
Our BRAIN made up
of 75% water,, produces power enough to light a bulb (upto 23 watts,, when
awake)..
è
Our BRAIN is split
into 2 symmetrical hemispheres,, Left & Right.. The left BRAIN controls the
right part of our body,, favours rational & analytical thinking.. While the
right BRAIN controlling the left part of our body,, controls conceptual &
visually oriented..
è
To one’s great
amazement,, even or losing one half of the BRAIN,, one would be able to still
survive..
è
Woman’s BRAIN is
smaller,, has more & more nerve cells & synapses and works more
efficiently than man’s.. They tend to be more emotional,, using left side of
the BRAIN ore,, while men use the right side (which is logical).. Also,, the
area responsible for nurturing feminine traits called straight gyrus,, is
larger in women in proportionate to men..
While we sleep,, our BRAIN processes all
the activities & informations gathered during the whole day.. In other
words,, it is the way to process the complex emotions & interaction of our
daily life.. People with high “IQ”,, dreams more than others & take 10
minute nap during day time..
