Look in the encylopedia and look up the word brain and information pertaining to (frontal Lobes of the brain) it pertains much to what you are wanting to know. It talks about the thinking and language and control motor thrpugh the body.I found this information in a nursing handbook that I have.It was too much to type so I just gave you a briefing.

The brain floats in a cushion of cerebral fluids and when a blow is strong enough to overcome the cushioning, the brain is diffusely affected; the whole brain is shocked. The brain can spend up to a week in hyper-metabolic activity, taking in many nutrients, before it recovers.

Ichi THAT is BRILLIANT......I know that in the tangential thinking that often bests me 'thinkos are the weakest links, perhaps the 'savants' of my mind and truly the innocents. Perhaps they are what saves my butt altogether.\nAbsolutely Brill!!!! I am going to ask if I may have permission to use this in my writing for in my speaking & writing i have for the first time just spoken it aloud...thank for the new concept on somethng I have been doing, another thing to obssess on, fair play to you mate, brain food doesnt often ome through the screen like this. and it just did.\nNow does this include the frontal and temporal lobes? Will Kirlean Photograhy show this in action? Or is it a different part of the brain where the lost socks of our lives go to?\nTHIS is a cool quesion. I now possess a new word..and it is awesome..."THINKOS"..now THAT is HOT!!!

Not too sure if you're interested in this type of stuff. http://www.getbodysmart.com\nhttp://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/brain/brshpx.htm\nalso the bbc.uk website has some interactive stuff where you have to match the parts to where they belong.

The brain is the organ responsible for thought and other functions.  The mind is the abstract concept that is the culmination of all thoughts, not a physical object.

No - the brain is an organ. However, you can "exercise" it by learning new things and solving problems.  Keeping your brain active helps to stimulate new brain cells and possibly fight dementia in later years.

A) Cell bodies is my choice.\n\nCerebral cortex  is a thin, convoluted surface of the brain consisting mainly of nerve cell bodies.♥

does anyone have a Ubergeek to english dictionary handy? I'm a nerd but this guy is either BSing or his frontal lobe is ginormous! at least his spelling sux....

I think you will find what you need here:\n\nhttp://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/introb.html\n\nIt is a good but simple site on neuroscience.\n\nThere was an identical question in Yahoo Answers since yours; I answered that in the same way.  Check it out for other help.

Interesting. The brain is a bundle of neurons, but it has no "feeling" itself.  An electrode inserted into the brain is painless.

The model that humans only use 10% of their brain was a myth developed about 30 years ago and completely discredited.  The misunderstanding is due to the fact that most of the brain is not involved in conscious processing or abstract reasoning.  But's still busy, involved with sensory processing, motor control, language etc.  (and these tasks are a lot harder than we ever thought.....)

The brain's morphology is functionally diverse.  What I mean by this statement is that certain regions/lobes of the brain are devoted to certain activities.  Consciousness, for example, is a product of the activity of the cortex; while respiration (breathing) is derived from the pons/medulla, and vision is processed in the occipital lobe.  The functions of the regions are, for the most part, independent of each other; so, if you ablate one specific lobe of the brain (for example, the occipital), a person would not be able to see (though, yes, his/her eyes would function- but having no center to integrate visual stimuli to would render one blind just the same), but would still breath and think if those centers are unharmed.  The same is true if the brain region responsible for thought processes is ablated: the pons/medulla would still work, since breathing does not require consciousness (ie: you don't have to be conscious in order to breath; hence, you breath in your sleep).  This is also why a comatose person may still be capable of breathing on his/her own, though there may be no conscious thought.\n\nThis is an simplified example, however.  It should be noted that brain function in terms of neural networks and what regions are dependent on each other is not yet fully understood.  The advent of the functional MRI will help science better understand the brain's function in the near future.

A BRAIN.\n\nDEFINITELY A BRAIN....

That 10% story has fallen to Urban Myth status.  New medical imaging techniques can now show which parts of the brain are in use during particular functions, such as speaking, reading, listening to music, etc.  Turns out that your brain uses many differnt parts to do most functions, but certiain functions TEND to concentrate in particular areas.\n\nWhat remains of the myth, though, may actually help understand what I said in the last paragraph.  Many people who have hade severe brain damage and loss of many functions, can sometimes regain at least some ot those functions when the brain learns to use other, undamaged parts to do what the damaged parts used to.\n\nYeah, a vital organ.  An artificial heart can keep a person going, but with no brain, even a beating heart runs in an empty shell.
