Do you know that human brain is not just the most complicated part in our body but it is more complex than any other known structure in the whole universe. Our brain can process enormous amount of information in a fraction of second.
It has been proved by researchers that Human brain is much more powerful than any supercomputer made by us.
So let's see Some mind blowing facts about our brain that you will find really hard to believe !!!
1. The brain itself cannot feel pain as it has no pain receptors. This is the reason why brain surgery can be performed while the patient is awake without any discomfort or pain.
2. There are about 1 billion neurons in the human brain. Each neuron forms about 1000 connections to other neurons, that results in more than a trillion connections.
3. Do you want to know the storage capacity of human brain?
So let me tell you that the Storage capacity of the human brain would be enough to hold nearly 3 million hours of TV shows!!!. In other words, we can say, if our brain worked like a digital video recorder in a television, then to completely use that storage you need to leave the TV running continuously for more than 300 years. So your brain would never run out of space at least in your lifetime.
4.Our brain is mostly made up of water. 73% of our brain is nothing but water.
5. Weight of an adult brain is about 3.3 pounds I.e. 1.5 kilograms. Average Male has a brain volume of 1274 cubic centimeters, while that of female brain is 1131 cubic centimeter and it makes up about 2 percent of our total body weight.
6. A very small piece of brain tissue equivalent to the size of a grain of sand contains nearly 100,000 neurons and 1 billion synapses and these all communicate with each other.
7. Do you know that our brain needs constant supply of oxygen. Some brain cells may die in the absence of oxygen for as little as five minutes.
8. Human brain uses 20% of body's total energy and oxygen intake although it is only 2% of the total body weight.
9. You will find it interesting that, our brain contains different types of cells. 10,000 specific types of neurons are present in the brain.
10. Do you know that human brain reaches its full maturity at the age of 25. Now you can understand, why your teenage kids sometimes behave so immaturely.
11. It's been found that our brain can generate up to 50,000 Thoughts per day, that's why it is also called as a "random thought generator".
12. Processing of information in our brain is extremely fast. It can process an image that our eyes have seen just for 13 milliseconds.
13. You will be Surprised to know that our brain generates about 12 to 25 Watts of electricity which is enough to power a low wattage LED light.
14. Weight of Albert Einstein's brain was 10% less than that of the average brain but the neuron density of his brain was greater than of average human brain.
15. It has been found that a part of brain known as hippocampus is significantly larger in London cab drivers. Hippocampus is considered the memory centre of our brain. But why London cab drivers have larger hippocampus?
The reason behind this is, they need to navigate through 25,000 streets of London which gives their brains great mental workout specially memory part. So now you can understand, why mental exercises are necessary to keep our brains sharp.
16. Our brain cannot concentrate on two things at the same time, all it can do is to switch quickly between different tasks which gives the illusion of multitasking.
So friends these were some unbelievable facts about human brain.
