What makes the brain remember things in it ?

Answer 1

the brain, is like, really smart, so its like really easy for it to remember things. i mean think about it, if your entire body was a brain, you would be wicked smart. well thats what its like for a brain. its all brain! so remembering things is like natural instinct for it.

Answer 2

The neurons in the brain stores memory and the cerebrum (part of the forebrain) is related to human intelligence. The bigger it is with more fissures and grooves, the smarter the person will be.

Btw, just some extra information:

Forebrain:
Cerebrum: Intelligence and voluntary actions
Hypothalamus: Emotions

Midbrain: Related to our optic sense; visual

Hindbrain:
Cerebellum: Muscular coordination
Medulla oblongata: Involuntary actions

Answer 3

Probably the electrical connections between neurons and synapses.

Unless you're a smoker or getting hits to your head, those neurons will be alive for a long time.

Also, eating meat means proteins, and meat helps us to use our brain in a more efficient way, as well as muscles.

These may not be completely correct, but it's what I remember and think.

Answer 4

many places in the brain store memory's,humans will never fully understand how the brain works,we use now only ten percent of it.neurons keep memory's alive.& allow for information to be exchanged.eat right,whole foods.lean meats.for a healthy brain.and body.when you sleep your brain tells your body how . where and when to heal itself,and take care of itself. the brain is a totaly amazeing organism.

Answer 5

there are three types of memory - procedural (doing stuff), short-term, and long-term.

synapes: these are the things between neurotransmitters. the act of memory will improve synaptic connections and strengthen neural connections.

acetylcholin (Ach): neurotransmitter that improves memory

hippocampus: important for forming new memories and transferring memories to long-term-memory.
interesting tidbit: people with damage to their hippocampus can't form new memories, because they have no short-term memory. however, they can remember things before the damage, because those memories are in their long-term-memories. an example of this would be in the movie Memento, and a real life example is the case of "Patient HM"

amygdala: important for flashbulb memories/emotional memories. (assassination of JFK, september 11th, car crash, etc.)

cerebellum: important for procedural memories (driving, riding a bike, reading, etc.) important for conditioning. damage to it causes problems in walking, balance, and accurate hand and arm movement. dyslexia, schizophrenia and autism also seem to be associated with the cerebellum.

cerebral cortex: stores long-term memory. transferred from hippocampus.

i'm not totally sure if your question was asking about human memory, but i hope this was interesting to you! by the way, since this was from my notes, some of the things may not be 100% accurate, but i tried. =)
