Humans DO use their full brain capacity. Scientists can detect and record activity in every area of the brain. But our conscious brain only uses 10%... the rest of the brain takes care of internal functions though the subconscious brain.
A normal Human being can use its brain upto 10%. Normally of 10%, human being uses 1% to 2%. Out of these, Albert Einsteins had highest brain percentage which was 9.8%. A great miracle! Answer By- Nishant Upadhyay
It is a common myth that we (mammals including humans, and other animals) use only a small percentage of our brains. We have so much information to process, store, recall, as well as basic bodily functions to manage that our brain is always in constant motion.

Because oxygen is used to burn glucose, the fuel preferred by the brain. At rest, you use about 20% of the oxygen you breathe to keep your brain running.
The entire brain is used to varying extents during both awake and sleeping states.The common misconception that we only use a proportion (10% or so) is perfectly absurd. Where the confusion arose was out of a statement concerning the potential for mental capacity - not how much of the brain is used to generate this ability.One only needs to remember two concepts to appreciate this: 1) that neurons and glial cells in the brain are metabolically very expensive to run, and like everything else in biology are subjected to the 'use it or lose it' axiom; 2) it is not presently clear exactly how mental capacity or intelligence relates to brain function.
The olfactory lobes are parts of the human brain involved in the perception of smell.
the brain we only use about 10% of 100% of our brain meaning we use everypart of our brain just not to its full potential
There is no such thing as "brain capacity"
One may use various channels while trying to find out information about the human brain's mental capacity. Biology books which are available in most libraries are very useful. A site known as 'WebMD' is also a reliable sources of this information.
10%
No, of course not, like humans, animals have a percentage of their brain, no matter how small, that they don't use.
They ALL work. They just don't all work at the same time. Of course, cells do die over the course of a lifetime. This answer is to counter the myth that we only use "10%" of our brain capacity. That is nonsense.
human brain is most intelligent power in the universe but human can not known how to use the brain fully.a shocking report human can use only 4or5%out of 100%brain................
appox 20 %
The cutting edge of mapping the human brain is by using computerised tomography.
full frontal labotomy ;)
Humans only use about 20% of the muscles capacity
