Curiosities of the Brain

What is a computing power of the Brain?

One neuron performs up to 200 computations per sec, whereas a brain is capable to perform 20 million billions of computations per sec.
How does sense of taste serve the Brain?

The sweet taste signals the identification of energy rich foods, umami recognizes the amino acids of proteins, salt ensures the proper electrolyte balance and sour and bitter tastes warn against potentially toxic or poisonous intakes.
How much energy does the Brain need?

The brain is in many respects the most energy-demanding organ in the body. The human brain represents only 2% of total body mass but consumes 20% of the body’s energy.
