Hi...Contrary to popular belief, we use ALL of our brain, not just 10%, it's just that we don't use it all at the SAME TIME. The whole brain is always active, and uses certain areas for certain things. This has been shown to be true in both real time MRI and brain wave patterns. As far as FULL? research seems to indicate the brain to be far more flexible than previously thought, with a mechanism similar to computers in a number of ways, one of which is the ability to 'compact' information for storage in the 'rarely used' department, sequentially making room for new knowledge all the time. It has been said, that with perfect recall, we could remember every single thing we've ever learned by accessing these areas of the brain .

Yes. But don't be afraid. In general, knowledge only take take 10-15 percent from the capacity of brain. That statement, I know from the science. From my feeling, if the brain is full(100 percent), we will die constantly.

the brain is perpetually full of knowledge, it just gets re-adjusted and compressed to accomodate the new information. It is a difficult question to answer because it is not very specific. There is plenty of information about neural networks on the web (though much of it is highly technical), this will give you an idea of how information is stored and used, then you can see that there is no black and white answer to this.

I'll tell ya if that ever happens. The way i see it, i'm holding out in case some great knowledge comes along so i don't want my brain to be occupied if it ever does

'the brain' is always full of knowledge. As we feed more knowledge in, it expands, not necessarily in size but in capacity. However, you need to remember that, your mind [brain] is like a parachute. IF ITS' NOT OPEN, IT WON'T WORK 1

do you know that human use only 4% of there whole brain and do not be surprised the thinking part of the brain is the smallest one the other large parts is for processing arrangement but when you think more memorise more you are expanding the percentage of usage so it is very very hard to be full of information

No definitely not!
I wouldn't have thought we were able to process enough information in the given time we are alive. The spectrum of knowledge being too broad and too varied and the capacity of our brains too great.

no - because it's impossible to fill it completely - for example - with memory - there is said to be enought memory space to remember every single thing you have ever done in your life since birth, but most people can't remember beyond the age of about four - my earliest memory is my second birthday - can't remember much, if anything before that. However, some peole I speak to can't remember hardly anything since the age of ten!!!!!!!! All our minds remember different things/use different amounts of different parts of our brains, but no one person can use 100% of every part of it.

No. even einstien only use up 5% of brain. by the way he's the person who use the most percentage of brain.

Yes! Have you ever taken a really hard test? But if this happens to you, be sure to hold your ears so your brains don't spill out.
