Biology of Human Mind & Brain:

The study of human behavior to psychology, physical science and social science makes the people puzzled in understanding the human mind and the brain. Some sort of light is possible to acquire by the study of brain anatomy, neurophysiology, hormones and genetics. Bertrand Russell, the brilliant mathematician, scientist, and philosopher said “The important point is that the difference between mind and brain is not a difference in quality, but a difference in arrangement. What he pointed out here is the fact that there is no distinction between mind and brain. But scientific explanation requires physical characteristics to proof the functions of brain. That is, thinking, perceiving, remembering, desiring or feelings are all the characters of our brain functions. It is claim that they are parts of the mind and these are nothing but one of linguistic convenience. The evidence in support of this argument is complex and unexplained till now.

Cognitive Capabilities of Brain of different species:

The study of the biology of the evolutionary development and diversification of a species or groups of organisms (Phylogenies) reveal certain facts of confidence. It is claimed that there is a close relationship between brain complexity and the knowledge of thought or senses so to say the cognitive abilities of the species. The species, those have the largest and most complex brains tend to have the greatest cognitive capabilities. Rats have a moderately complex brain that is capable of many feats of learning, the dog brain is more complex and the cognitive abilities of dogs surpass those that of the rat. The monkey brain is highly complex and it has the amazing capacity in the range of communicative abilities, emotional responses and sexual responses. But even the human brain surpasses the cognitive capabilities of all other brains so far known existing on this planet.

The secret of uncertainty:

It is believed that brain is made of material stuff and its matter is examined scientifically and research is going on to find further discovery of information. The question arises – Is the mind is made up of material stuff? If not, the mind is made up of non-matter. If it is non-matter, the question again arises – what is that non-matter and with what matter is it made of? We have no answers and there the secret of mystery lies.

Teenagers-Brain Pruning:

Countless parents over the years have befuddled on looking the mysterious activities of their children. Some insights are now being provided by the recent neuroscience research of Teenage –Brain.  Some research study at the University of California reveals that “when a child is born, their brain is not fully-formed”. The study over the last few years exposes that there occurs a great proliferation of connections between cells in the brain. The study further reveals that it is the developing brain that decides which neutral links to keep based on how frequently they are used. Sometimes in adolescence period during the period of development, some important connections are lost, which could lead to psychiatric disorder. This requires parent’s care, nursing and supplying of nutrient food to children.
