1.-WHY
DID YOU SELECT THE ARTICLE?
I
chose this article about the myths about the brain, because I felt very
interesting to reveal the truths of those unknowns related to our brain, as
this color, size, reactions to various substances, such as alcohol, drugs or
drugs or reactions to classical music or after decapitation; are things that
the answers are normalized in the group but did not really know anything
because we're wrong. That is the grace to reveal myths, get us wrong answers
with a fully scientific and empirical basis giving truthful answers. So who
better to give answers about our brains.
2.-DID
YOU FIND ENOUGH INFORMATION IN THE ARTICLE? DID YOU FIND THE INFO YOU WERE
LOOKING FOR?
has
always interested me that reveals the myth that humans use 10 percent of the
brain and the truth is that I thought it strange that occupy so little being we
are doing many things simultaneously, like look, breathe, smell, hear, and many
others, our brain is constantly alert and is very believable that all this is only
10 percent. This article cleared my doubts on this subject and I confirm
scientific manner that not only actually occupy that percentage, it is clear
that much use because many functions we perform on a unconscious and others
with complete willingness.
3.-WHAT
WAS THE MOST INTERESTING THING YOU LEARNT ABOUT IT?
The
most interesting thing I read in the article was that related to the beheading
and alleged reaction even if the brain has been subsequently beheaded. Past few
seconds later date after decapitation, the brain is manifested through flickers
or gestualidades in the face, which I found it very strange and unfamiliar, but
that does not really belong to a state of consciousness of the person they are
only inadvertent or deliberate movements muscles manifest.
