Similarity between shark brain and human brain?

Answer 1

"One of the papers shows that with Great White Sharks, the area of the brain that receives visual input is quite large, and suggests the relative importance of vision in these animals is quite high," she said.

"This information may direct researchers' efforts towards targeting the visual system when developing repellants for sharks," she added.

Another paper suggested the cerebellum - which controlled motor movement and appeared first in early sharks - was an important evolutionary advancement that led to aspects of higher neural function in vertebrates including humans, Yopak said.
