The BRAIN is perhaps the most fascinating
organ in the human body.. It controls everything from breathing to emotions to
learning.. Here are some interesting facts that might helpful,, from how the BRAIN affects learning to facts about
memory to interesting facts about the BRAIN..
è Each
time we blink,, our BRAIN keeps
things illuminated so the whole
world doesn’t go dark each time we blink,, which is about 20,,000 times a day..
è As easy
as laughing seems,, it is actually a very complex task that requires activity
in 5 different areas of the BRAIN..
è Yawning
often promotes yawning in others nearby.. Scientists believe that yawning may
have been an ancient social behaviour that
signalled an event,, with others yawning in response.. Today,, we still hold on
to the response,, even if we don’t need it..
è It is
believed that humans experience 70,,000 thoughts each day..
è The lack
of gravity in outer space affects the BRAIN
in several ways.. Scientists are studying how & why,, but you may want to
hold off on your next trip to the moon..
è Archeologists
found evidence that primitive BRAIN
surgery was performed by drilling a hole in the skull as far back as 2000 BC..
è Oxytocin
is a hormone that is responsible for promoting social interaction & may
help children with autism increase social skills and trust..
