What kind of a question is that anyway? We have been told that we all use only 10% of our brains. Even Albert Einstein and others have said some variation of it.
This seems kinda stupid if you put it this way. Why would we have the biggest brain in proportion to our bodies of any animal if we didn't actually use all of it?
Here's the thing, though; it's not really true. In addition to those 100 billion neurons, the brain is also full of other types of cells that are continueally in use. We can become disabled from damage to just small areas of the brain depending on where it's located, so there's no way that we could function with only 10% of our brain in use.
Really, you may only have about 10% of consciousactivity, but your brains are ALWAYS active. Some areas of the brain are more active at any one time than others, but unless we all are brain-dead, then not ONE, NOT ANY part of the brain that is absolutely not functioning. Here's an example; if you're sleeping in your bed, you're not moving physically, well not that much, but that doesn't mean the your arms or legs (or anywhere else that usually doesn't move much in sleep, for that matter) move. But that doesn't mean that your body isn't working -- there's still activity in them, such as blood flow, even when you're not actually moving them.
So there's no hidden, extra potential you can tap into, in terms of actual brain space. You are always using 100% of your brain, unless you're brain-dead.
What else can I help you with?
How much of the brain do you use?
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
In percentage how much animal use his brain and how much human use his brain?
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.

Do butterflies have brains?
Yes, butterflies have brains. Their brains are relatively simple compared to mammals, but they have specialized structures that allow them to navigate, process sensory information, and regulate their behaviors.
Do brains feel pain?
No, brains do not feel pain because they lack pain receptors.
Are boys brains bigger than girls?
On average, boys' brains are slightly larger than girls' brains, but this does not necessarily translate to differences in intelligence or cognitive abilities. Numerous factors, such as genetics, environment, and individual experiences, influence brain development and function. Gender differences in brain size are not a straightforward indicator of cognitive differences between boys and girls.
Do you use just ten percent of your brain?
No, people use 100% of their brains. It is a common myth that we only use 10% of our brains.
Do humans use all of there brain?
normal humans use only 4% of their brains inestein used 10% of his brain.
What percentage of your brain do you use in a lifetime?
It is a common myth that humans only use 10% of their brains, but in reality, we use all parts of our brain throughout our lifetime. Different tasks and activities engage different parts of the brain, so there is no fixed percentage that represents how much of our brains we use.
How much of the brain is used at once?
It is a common myth that humans only use 10% of their brains, but in reality, the brain is constantly active and different regions are involved in various tasks simultaneously. While certain functions may require more brain activity than others, it is safe to say that the majority of the brain is engaged in different activities throughout the day.
Why do you use only 10 percent of your brains?
This is a myth. The percentage of the brain used varies between person and activity being performed, but most of the brain is used most of the time.
Why is a part of your brain never used?
When fully engaged in all the senses and activity, we can use up to about 50% of the brain at any one time. The old myth that we only use 10% of our brains is just that, a myth.
What is a good sentence with microscopic in it?
Only people with microscopic brains use Wikianswers to do their homework.
Why do people only use one tenth of their brains?
you use all of your brain but not at one time and it depends on your IQ
Do you use 100 percent of your brains?
No you don't use your whole brain. Only part of your brain is ever used.
Why do you only use 1 percent of your brain?
We do not only use one percent of our brains. All parts of our brains are used. The brain is decided into sections that control different things, such as, emotions, memory, creativity, and controlling the body.
Does monkey have two brains?
No. A monkey does not have two brains, only one as in apes and primates. No extant mammal has two true brains.
How much percent the normal man use his brain?
One hundred. The notion that humans only use some fraction of their brains is hokum.
