T6-1.- What percentage of your brain do you use?

The absence of reactivity that indicates brain death

The point where excitation and inhibition balance each other out

The point at which half the brain’s energy goes to just maintain its structure

Transmitting signals

Maintaining electrical resting potentials

Keeping it from falling apart

It releases calories

It makes food soft and denatures proteins so they are more easily absorbed

It makes it tastier

That there isn’t enough energy to send signals all the time

That brains have to figure out how to do more with less

That a small number of signals can carry a lot of information

Our memory capacity is limited

Two or more things at once is confusing

The fact of selective attention means that we don’t have the energy to do so
