Let's consider an analogy.

The Human body and the computer:

The brain can be compared to the CPU of a computer. The Skeletal muscular system would then be the equivalent of the key board.

The Skeletal muscular system is the one and only part of the human body that we can feel and control.

In a computer, does the key board controls the CPU or the CPU controls the key board? For the manufacturer, one controls the other. He has to improve both so that the interaction between the two becomes easier and more reliable.

However, according to the user it is the key board that controls the CPU. In fact, he need not even have to know that the computer has a CPU.

The brain can't be improved. We can only make the best use of what we have got.

What is 'I' anatomically?

What is the 'You' we are talking about? Lets consider its first person equivalent, 'I'. What is this 'I' anatomically?

All the skeletal muscles of the body can contract and relax isometrically as a single unit called Unified Skeletal Muscle, popularly known as the mind. This can contract voluntarily (under our control) or involuntarily (On its own). As default, the voluntary part is trapped between two layers of involuntary parts.

This voluntary part of the Unified Skeletal Muscle or Mind is what we call 'I'. The involuntary part is what we call Self.

What controls the brain?

Under normal conditions it is the 'I' that controls our entire life through the brain, the brain playing a very passive role. In fact, we need not even have to know that we have a brain to use the brain.

Brain cells *are* your brain since your brain is made of cells. There are different types of brain cells with different functions. Neurons are the cells that are actually responsible for thought/functional regulation/signal conduction, etc. Glial cells such as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia are responsible for providing support to neurons to ensure property neuronal function.

yes

Your brain controls most of your muscles; there are also muscles which are controlled by the sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous system. The brain does not control peristalsis, for example, and only indirectly controls the heart beat.

How are voluntary and involuntary muscles different?

Voluntary muscles chose to be moved and your will. For example your pectoral muscles and or your biceps. You can flex them and move them to your control by giving in nerve signals from your brain to that muscle. Involuntary muscles have automatic neurological control. Example would be the heart, you don't think about it but it still beats, and if you do exercise your brain automatically tells your heart to beat faster to pump more blood into your body.
