Well, it's been about a week, time for my newest article. Per request of some of my readers, this article will be about the human brain, personality, and everything you should know about that noggin of yours.
The Human brain is by far one of the most astounding, repulsive, and mysterious of all the things to emerge from nature. It's hard to imagine amino acids would later result in the occurrence of such an incredible machine. Three times the average mammal's brain with an equivalent body size, using about thirty percent of your oxygen. If the brain is deprived of oxygen even ten seconds, you become unconscious, in four, brain damage occurs.
Brain damage changes everything about a person, taste, speech, hearing, personality, and everything that makes you who you are. Ninety billion neurons firing from synapses at near or at the speed of light (about 186,282 a second). In other words, information and commands are sent and processed very quickly.
The modern human brain over the past 28,000 years is shrinking, as found out by the Cro Magnom theory. This can be a bad thing because recent experiments show that a larger brain, helps prevent Alzheimer's disease. In adults, the average brain weight in men is about 11-12% more than the average brain weight in women. Men's heads are also about 2% bigger than women's. This is due to the larger physical stature of men. Male’s larger muscle mass, and larger body size require more neurons to control them.
Your brain is the control center of all your bodily functions. It continuously receives sensory information, such as sight, feel, taste, sound, and rapidly analyzes these data and then responds. The brain stem controls your breathing, heart rate, and other processes. The Neocortex is the center of "higher-order" thinking, learning, and memory, allowing us to have creativity, remember faces and names. The cerebellum is responsible for the body's hand-eye coordination, balance, and posture, allowing us to walk, sit, and play sports like football.
Recent study done by Professor of Biological Sciences Douglas McMahon, graduate student Chris Ciarleglio, post-doctoral fellow Karen Gamble and two undergraduate students at Vanderbilt University, have concluded that the season of your birth has vast effects on your personality and your body's internal clock. A huge step in explaining why we have the traits that we do and disorders some develop. If we are ever to get out of low earth orbit, we have to learn more about birth and how it affects the newborn. In the future births might have a simulated indoor season, chosen by the parent to help eliminate unwanted disorders.
Scientist have discovered that what you think about other people, also has a large impact on your persona. It has even been determined that "beautiful" people, convey first impressions better. Personality even effects individual fertility. There have been large studies on controlling these functions.
Tibetan monks have been controlling their body temperature, heart rate, and pain intake for hundreds of years. Further study has resulted in treatment for patients who have brain damage. Some conditions like constant pain from a car accident or oxygen deprivation.
Our brain is responsible for placebos working, people dying before they hit the ground from a fall, and whether you achieve the goal you set out to do. Generally if you think it's going to happen both consciously and unconsciously, the brain has a tendency to make the fear or desire real. Just remember that this question might start with scientist but it ends with you and whether you as an individual are willing to improve your personality.
If scientists solve many of the questions that we have with personalities & the brain, we will be able to replicate or even improve our brain. Making A.I. more intelligent than us, then downloading biologically, everything they know into our brains, selectively or not. Making robots that are sentient, sapient, and capable of creativity, reasoning, & solving problems. This could potentially, cure Alzheimer's, dementia, or other diseases and disorders. Replacing or adding synapses, nerve endings, and neurons in patients who suffer from Down syndrome, cancer, dyslexia, and many other modern plagues. It could even improve the way brain surgery is operated.
In the past one hundred years we have learned a lot about the mind, but the more we learned the more we found out how little we knew. The human brain will continue to astonish and baffle scientist for many years to come. Just don't be afraid to do things yourself, to improve your situation.
“Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.” -William Shakespeare
