Human Intelligence

El estudio de la anatomía y el funcionamiento del sistema nervioso y el cerebro se conoce como neurociencia. Para mapear el cerebro de manera mecánica, los neurocientíficos recurren a la biología celular y molecular, la anatomía y la fisiología, el comportamiento y la cognición humanos, y otros campos. Cada neurona, o célula cerebral, en un ser humano adulto tiene aproximadamente 100 mil millones de conexiones con otras neuronas. Todo aprendizaje se basa en la capacidad del cerebro para construir nuevos circuitos y conexiones neuronales, o neuroplasticidad.

Any organ—heart, lungs, immune system, brain, or eyes—could fail. And the loss of one spacecraft system—oxygen, temperature, food, water, or radiation protection...
