Did You Know?
The human brain consists of more than 100 billion nerve cells (neurons) through which the brain's commands are sent in the form of electric pulses. These pulses travel at more than 400 km/h (250 mph), creating enough electricity to power a lightbulb. The brain consumes more energy than any other organ, burning up a whopping one-fifth of the food we take in.
It can process many operations at the same time (such as thinking, talking and walking at the same time). This is called parallel processing. I call it Multi-tasking!
It is estimated that the mental capacity of a 100-year old human with perfect memory could be represented by computer with 10 to the power of 15 bits (one petabit- i.e. 1,000,000,000,000,000). However, that represents just memory capacity, not the extremely complex processes of thought creation and emotions.
"I praise You because of the wonderful way You created me. Everything You do is marvelous! Of this I have no doubt."- Psalm 139:14
It just shows how amazing our creator is.
