    Another fun fact about the brain is that a lot of the higher order functions (abstract thinking, stuff beyond sensory data, etc) takes place in the frontal cortex, which humans have a larger one of these than most animals, including other primates. So it could be that humans are capable of more complicated feats of building, thinking, etc, due to this more specialized region of our brains rather than it being a merely a question of brain size or brain to body mass ratios.

    8:55 a correction/further information here, the usage of "bug" referring to defects predates the invention of electronic computers, it has been used in engineering since the 1870s (no clear origin). The moth in the computer did popularize the usage of "bug" in computers when the operator who found the bug was also familiar with the engineering term and joked about it being the "First actual case of bug being found." (the wording here shows the term "bug" predates this event)

    • @oucyan
      @oucyan 3 года назад +8

      sort of incorrect. insects are weird. while they do have a central brain in their head, they also have a really thick column of nerves that runs along the length of their body connected to a bunch of Ganglia. it's why cockroaches can survive without a head (until they die of thirst/starvation from not being able to ingest food and water). it isn't that they have additional brains, just that that column of nerves picks up some of the slack of the brain.
      Many simple organisms like crinoids, starfish, jellyfish and mussels/oysters/clams don't have brains at all. They have a nerve network that dictates their actions. Brains are incredibly advances and suck up a lot of resources to maintain, so for more simple organisms they aren't worth the investment.
      As for Octopi, their tentacles don't have true brains either. those "small brains" you mentioned are just clumps of motor neurons that react to external stimuli, process the information from said external stimuli, and react accordingly. It's a system that makes it easier for the central brain to control all eight limbs in tandem without messing up the commands.

    I'm personally more curious about Flabébé's "brain." It is the smallest Pokemon as was mentioned, but is also capable of learning some psychic moves (though I do note that none of them are learned naturally through level-up). Pokemon in general tend to appear to be smarter than most animals and closer to human-like intelligence, so it may not be as simple as having the kind of brain an insect would have, and besides, most bug types are bigger than Flabébé.

    saw your alternate universe theories throughout the videos you've made. This made me create a theory that may or may not have been made yet. What if Pokemon Sword and Shield takes place not in a third universe but in the first universe despite dynamax. If we look at Galar itself it seems the dynamax phenomenon is only region and area specific. This can be seen with Spikemuth and its previous gym trainer Piers. It seems that the dynamax effect is only in certain areas. These areas are usually where gyms are built but not spikemuth. This tells us that this phenomenon is truly native to certain areas and most definitely native to Galar, this could explain the lack of mega evolution, and there is talk of different regions and in the original Pokemon there was no mega evolution and there is none in Galar, this means that our sword and shield universe could be set in the original and could probably just not have made it into the megaverse (mega evolution).

    Years ago, I took a college bio course, and I learned that evolution actually DID favor smaller brains in humans - on average, neanderthal brains were significantly larger than homo sapiens brains, yet homo sapiens were more intelligent because their smaller brains were measurably more efficient. I have since treasured that knowledge and thrown it at anyone who uses the "big brain" meme at me. XD
    Also, bird brains. Having a "bird brain" is an insult, yet some bird species are not only crazy-smart, but also self-aware, which is a whole other level of intelligence. And now I know that honey bees are actually very nearly human-smart in their own way. I LOVE BIOLOGY!

    Doesn't Mega Alakazam's pokedex entry state that it loses body needs to increase mental capacity? That kind of goes hand in hand with the ratio bit.

    Lately, to keep my brain trained, I've been reading up on the ecology of the Great Lakes Region. (Totally not for a sequel game to the Lockemon games)
    But I think I will use that Blinkist link for a free 7 day trial!

    One thing to consider is that there are eight different types of intelligence. Like how we know bees consistently have good interpersonal, spacial, naturalistic (I think) and linguistic intelligence but what about logical-mathematical? We can easily chalk anything involving that they seem to have to instinct. What about musical, bodily-kinesthetic and intrapersonal intelligence? I'm sure it'd be a heck of a lot harder to find these things out.

    Another fun little factor when it comes to brains is plasticity, f.ex. You can remove a small portion of a baby's brain and it still has a chance of living a normal life (that's still just a chance, plz don't go around scooping baby brain) but as you grow older your brain becomes less plastic so brain damage becomes more permanent.
    There Are even some critters like flatworms who can straight up regrow their brain, and I don't mean like "oh, as long as there's X% left of it", you can chop its head off and it'll regrow.
