Your brain is the most complex organ in your body. It produces every thought, action, memory, feeling and experience of the world. But did you know? |
|
|
- A human brain weighs around 1.4 kilograms, and contains a staggering one hundred billion nerve cells, or neurons. \xa0
- The cabling that connects the nerve cells inside your brain is about 160,000 km long. So, for each person, that's enough to wrap around the earth four times over.
- Auditory-verbal hallucinations do not have to be 'heard' through a sensory organ. It is in fact relatively rare for hallucinated voices to be fully audible and external like someone else speaking.\xa0
