BRILLIANT BRAIN

We are studying so many subjects from our childhood. But, to read any subjects, to do any work, first of all to survive on earth brain is very essential to us. How many members well known about brain? And How much know about brain? Scientists are saying still now we have just 10% details about brain. Even this much have also known recently means 10-20 years back. Now we just try to know some interesty about brain.

Interesting things of Brain:-

In humans the weight of brain is generally 1300-14000gm. This is nearly 2% of total body weight. But percentage of brain is less in remaining animals when compare to human.

Elephants have brain with 9 kg weight, but it is a very less weight when compare with total body weight of elephant.

According to percentages human brain is larger than the animals on the earth.

Yet the human brain 2% in our body weight but it utilizes 20% of total energy from body. With this energy we can light 25 watts electric bulb.

Human brain can hit 15 times double than hits by total internet consumers all over world up to three days.

Essential components of brain are Neuron. In flies brain nearly on Lakh neurons are present. In rat 50 Lakhs and in monkey nearly thousands crores neurons are present.

But in human brain ten thousand crores of neurons are present.

To write the number of atoms present in universe we should put eighty zeroes beside on. It we type this number it is nearly 25c.m long. At the same time if we type the number of bonds between neurons it is nearly 1, 00, 00, 000 K.M

Daily 85 thousand of neurons are dying in our brain. But everyday generates lot of neurons by neurons by neuroplasticity.

This much powerful brain to work properly and healthy it needs some essential compounds that are Oxygen and Glucose. Five parts of blood which is pumped by heart reaches brain. Glucose and Oxygen also supplies through this blood only.

If oxygen supply steps up to 10min to brain it may leads so many neurological disorders.
