10 functions of the brain
It is the center of all conscious awareness and is divided into different lobes with different functions. It contains the cerebrum, about 85% of the total mass.
The brain controls all functions of the body, interprets information from the outside world, and defines who we are as individuals and how we experience the world.
The brain receives information through our senses: sight, touch, taste, smell, and hearing.
This information is processed in the brain, allowing us to give meaning to the input it receives.
The brain is part of the central nervous system (CNS) along with the spinal cord. There is also a peripheral nervous system (PNS) comprised of 31 pairs of spinal nerves that branch from the spinal cord and cranial nerves that branch from the brain.
