∙ 11y agoAn adult human's brain weighs between 1300 and 1400 grams (about 3 pounds). A sheep's brain weighs about 140 grams. Given that the density of both brains is about the same, we can safely say that the cerebral hemisphere is much larger in humans.

∙ 13y agoThe human brain stem is towards the backbone and downwards, because in the human body the backbone is vertical; compared to a sheep's backbone which is horizontal, and its brain is directed outwards. This would explain why the size of the brain stems are different. The bodies are formed differently and the brains are situated differently so the brain stem is sized according to the need to support the brain.

∙ 9y agoThe fornix is roughly the same size in a sheep and a human. The human fornix is more developed though because it links memory to taste.

How do the sheep valves compare with their human counterparts?
Although sheep and human organs are similar in number, name, and structure, the organs found in sheep are smaller and somewhat different than those of their human counterparts. In spite of the similarities, one cannot exchange organs between the two species.
How does the relative size of the cerebral hemispheres compare you sheep and human brain?
It's greater in humans- which allows us to have more folding- therefore having more thinking capabilities compared to that of a sheep. Hope I helped! :)
How is the sheep's brain similar and different from a human's brain?
a human brain has a larger cerebrum a humans brain has more convolutions they both have the same parts(spinal cord,cerebrum,and cerebellum)
What is the significance of the fact that the olfactory bulbs are larger in sheep brain than in human brain?
Sheep are more reliant on their sense of smell vs humans who rely more on sights and sounds. It's a ''survival type of thing" for the reason why sheep's olfactory bulbs are larger. Hope I helped!! :)

Difference between sheep's cerebellum and human cerebellum?
There are quite a few differences between sheep cerebellum and human cerebellum. The most noticeable difference is the size of each.
What is the difference between a sheep station and a sheep farm?
The size of the property and thus the number of sheep that can be grazed..
What is the difference between a sheep's kidney from a human kidney?
The pig's kidneys function differently to human kidneys, producing different proteins and hormones in different quantities.
Is the human fornix bigger than the sheep?
The fornix is roughly the same size in a sheep and a human. The human fornix is more developed though because it links memory to taste.
What are the difference between a dog brain then human brains?
the only difference is the size
How does relative size compa re a sheep's fornix to a human fornix?
im pretty sure its just smaller in size (the sheeps is smaller)
What are the differences between human brain and sheep brain?
The human brain is larger. The positioning of the hind brain is different, due to the erect position of humans. Convolutions are increased in humans (increases surface area). The sheep's brain has a smaller cerebellum (lesser motor control/less complex learned motor behaviors). There is a larger pineal gland in sheep (related to circadian rhythms/seasonal reproduction).
