What else can I help you with?
It is said that synaptic connections form so quickly in the baby's brain that by the time the baby is three, it will have twice as many synapses as it will need later on How are these extra synapses?
they are eliminated when they are not used
Where are electrical synapses found?
Synapse is located, where two neurons meet each other. One cubic cm of brain cortex have about one billion synapses, probably.
Do brain cells die when you think?
No. Actually, the opposite should happen - by thinking, you strain certain cells, which then react by developing more synapses with other cells. Unused brain cells will degenerate synapses and eventually die.
What nerves in your body to your brain?
All nerves in the body are connected by synapses to the ganglia in the spinal cord to where the travel back up to the brain
How many neurons does the human brain have per square inch?
"100 billion", that's how many neurons there are totally in the human brain, I am interested if I "cut" a part of the human brain that was a cubic inch how many neurons would be in there?
How many synapses does the brain have?
The brain is estimated to have around 100 trillion synapses. These synapses are the connections between neurons that allow them to communicate with each other.
When does a human brain work best?
At birth, the synapses in the brain are most active at this time in a persons life.
How many synapses are there in the brain?
Around 100 trillion
It is said that synaptic connections form so quickly in the babys brain that by the time the baby is three it will have twice as many synapses as it will need later on How are these extra synapses?
These extra synapses are formed to provide flexibility and adaptability in the baby's brain to help with learning and development. Over time, the brain will prune away unnecessary synapses based on the experiences and connections that are reinforced, leading to a more efficient and specialized neural network.

What is the name give to the connections between the nerve cells in our brain?
"synapses"
How many brain connections does a 3 years old?
By the age of three, a child's brain has formed approximately 1,000 trillion synapses, which are the connections between neurons. This number is significantly higher than the average number of synapses in an adult brain, as early childhood is a period of rapid brain development and learning. These connections allow for the development of cognitive skills, language, and social interactions. Over time, many of these connections will be pruned to enhance efficiency and specialization in the brain.
What is the real storage of human brain are there any other living things that can have the same capacity of human brain storage?
Unknown, but as there are about 10 ^ 14 power synapses, and perhaps each could store one bit. So there would be your upper limit. As for other animals, none. But elephants (more synapses, but more body), apes, chimps, and dolphins are the only ones that come close. By the way, that's 100000000000000
How do chemicals travel through the human blood?
Synapses
How many different kinds of neurotransmitters do you release into your synapses?
There are over 100 different types of neurotransmitters that can be released into synapses, each with specific functions and effects on neuronal communication. Some of the most well-known neurotransmitters include serotonin, dopamine, and glutamate.
How many connections are in the brain?
The brain contains around 86 billion neurons, each of which can form connections with thousands of other neurons. This means that the total number of connections in the brain, known as synapses, is estimated to be in the quadrillions.
Where are electrical synapses found?
Synapse is located, where two neurons meet each other. One cubic cm of brain cortex have about one billion synapses, probably.
