If the world around us is unknown, then the human mind also still has many areas whose function scientists do not know specifically, and until scientists finish their research, let us tell you some exciting “mental” facts.
1) The human brain consists of 75% water and requires electrical energy estimated at 10 watts to work. The mind works at its maximum capacity during sleep, and this explains the frequent dreams, especially among intelligent people.
2) The weight of the human brain is 3 pounds (one pound = 454 grams) and represents 2% of the body, which makes it the largest brain among creatures according to its proportion of the body. It is worth noting that the elephant has the largest brain, but it represents only 0.15% of its body.
3) Human skin weighs twice as much as the human brain.
4) The human brain consists of 100,000 miles of blood vessels, and it is considered the fattest organ in the body, as 60% of it is fat.
5) A person’s mind stops developing when he is eighteen years old.
6) If a child grows up in an environment that stimulates thinking, his ability to learn increases by 25%, but if he grows up in an inactive and unstimulating environment, his ability to learn decreases by 25%.
7) A child who learns to speak two languages before the age of five experiences a change in the structure of the mind.
8) The first sense that a person acquires is touch, and he acquires it while inside the womb.
9) If you tickle yourself, you will not laugh because your mind can differentiate between your touch and anything external.
10) Lack of sleep weakens the mind’s ability to retain new memories. Also, not remembering any dream does not mean that you did not dream.
