“If our brains were simple enough to understand, we’d be too stupid to do so.” -My senior year anatomy teacher lol So yeah, I don’t hold it against anyone for not having a definitive answer when it comes to the brain. It’s so complex that idk if we’ll ever get a grasp on it.
If our body takes to much of the brain to manage, what if we were just heads? Like in Futurama. If the brain would only focus on the mental part and didn't need to manage any physical activity, would our intelligence rise?
bruh the literal only way for people to understand their brains was if they had the big dumb, but they cant understand it by that point because they have the big dumb
"Yes I'm insulting Wyomingites, but there's like four of you." As a Wyomingite I have only two things to say. First off, how dare you insult my people in such a way! And second, great video as always!
@@Chaos89P Bird brain is an outdated term that doesn't apply to 95% of birds and even if there are some that fit the bill, there are dumb mammals too lol
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)
I mean ants (all insects in fact) have "smaller brains" in their bodies, and octopi, have "small brains" in tentacles, so tentacles can make basic decisions...
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.
@@oucyan I'm pretty sure insects don't have a brain, just a central nervous system throughout their body. If I'm incorrect, please let me know. (And a reference or study if possible)
@@swagmaster699 no. Insects have a brain. you can literally google it. "Do Insects have Brains?" What you might be thinking of is the Ganglia, which is why insects can survive for a while without a head. their brain isn't anywhere near as important as a human brain.
I absolutely adore when you make a video that's just about science but you slap a Pokemon on the intro and outro so people will watch it. Seriously. Some men just want to watch the world learn, and you are one of those men.
Holy heck, that Biker Mice From Mars reference. I was thinking about them only a few weeks back. It's funny when you believe for ages something you watched as a kid was some sorta fever dream, but was in fact real. Another one I remember was a movie about martial art kangaroos or something? That was a trip.

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.
Ya know what, GreyMatter and the Galvin's intelligence combined with their physically small size suddenly makes a lot of sense! Also throughout this entire video, all I could here in my head was this: Azmuth: Are you insinuating that you're smarter than me because your HEAD is bigger? BrainStorm: No. I'm IMPLYING that I'm smarter than you because my BRAIN is bigger!
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).
A honey bee can recognise faces. Me who is completely face blind and couldn't even recognise my own sister by just looking at her face: So bees are smarter than me? XD
“Yes I’m insulting Wyomingians, but there’s like four of you PPFFFTT” is the most chaotic line I’ve ever heard and I was on the floor for a solid minute.
In defense of the whales, it's hard to invent things outside of body language or vocal language when you don't have thumbs. Hands have made us the deadly joke character of the game we call life, we really shouldn't have gotten as far as we have.
When the devs added beta Apes and beta Humans to the game, the players found an exploit thr Human players used to really dominate the meta. What sucks even more is that, when devs thought about patching the exploit, the Human players outcried and said that it should stay. The devs caved in and Humans have been still dominating the meta to this day.
One must also remember that not all parts of the brain process *thought*. For instance, a mouse's olfactory bulb (smell processor) is significantly larger than a humans, but the mouse's prefrontal cortex (logic and decision making) is significantly smaller - both relatively speaking.
There are so many things that cannot be added in a less than 20 minute video that also contribute, shape number of folds regions etc over all I like this
You should do a video about what you think Hop might specialize in, should he take Sonia's spot as professor. My best guess would be Gigantamax, since Magnolia is only Dynamax and Sonia is Galar history.
Random tangent about sensory density, I was actually making a point with someone about AI being so much less efficient if they were dumped into a human body. The most powerful AI wouldn't be able to cope with being a human if it were to all of a sudden given that much sensory input and control. The power of the human brain is primarily used to just exist. That's my two cents anyway
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!
brain size doesn't matter. it's the ratio of brain size to body size that matters. i've researched this topic a lot over the last few years and i can guarantee brain size has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence
I was gonna say you missed an opportunity to put Big Brain or Noggin in the title but i got that in the first 3 seconds along with "size dosnt matter" you truely have over 300 IQ
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!
HUGE fan of these types of videos, wish game theory made more things like this instead of trend-related stuff all the time. Keep on being great Lockstin!
Have you done a room tour yet? I'd love a look at the set-up and the whole collection! Also great video, I absolutely got about 3/4ths the way through when you pulled out the Alakazam and I realized this was a Pokemon video. Oops 😂
before the ad is over, I'm calling it that this episode is about emerging studies that correlated brain to body mass being the indicator, and not just brain size.
This is the most 'Vsauce' vibe episode of Gnoggin I've seen 😂. When Lockstin asked 'But what is consciousness?' I was genuinely expecting the Vsauce music to play
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.
Alakazam and Gengar families are forever my favorite Pokemon. There certainly are others that are pretty Awesome but those two have been IT since the very beginning for me 😅. Also, i really enjoy the videos on this channel so far, Thank You for the Entertainment.😄👍
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.
Probably already in the comments, but the Emerson Pugh quote, "If the brain were so simple we could understand it, we would bo so simple we couldn't." has even more relevance to me after this vid.
Maybe it's size relative to the body cuz if you look at flabez yeah it's really small but it's head is almost the size of its body the flower is much bigger than both
@@user-gj3fb7pq1w It's like the older I got I realized I'm not some super intelligent person, I really did felt that way in high school since I was the top of the school and I didn't even tried hard, I didn't think I was superior or anything I just felt smart until I graduated high school and now I can say I'm smarter than I was in high school, I'm smart enough to recognize my own intelligence it's so above average as I thought but whatever I'm fine with it.
Never expected to see a Bikermice from Mars reference omg xD Btw, I really advice to read: Think and grow rich - Napoleon Hill How to make friends and influence people - Dale Carnegy These books will make you think about A LOT of stuff ;)
>mega alakazams head doesn't change >Its legs and ...ears? Horns? get smaller >It gets smarter. Clearly this is because it has less surface area and can redirect those neurons to smartness. Yeah. Totally makes sense. heh.

It's very easy to forget that this video was about pokemon
You mean to tell me I need another 4 years for my brain to be fully developed, and here I thought it was finished developing once I turned 18.
The brain develop by the time you reach your 20s. Do you feel you're getting smarter and solving puzzle that was difficult to solve at an early age ?
@@user-gj3fb7pq1w Yeah but I don't feel smarter I just feel dumber.
@@richardmorgan3665 ?
@@user-gj3fb7pq1w It's like the older I got I realized I'm not some super intelligent person, I really did felt that way in high school since I was the top of the school and I didn't even tried hard, I didn't think I was superior or anything I just felt smart until I graduated high school and now I can say I'm smarter than I was in high school, I'm smart enough to recognize my own intelligence it's so above average as I thought but whatever I'm fine with it.
I haven't watched this video yet but I am guessing it is gonna be about brain to body size
3:23 get stick bugged lol
Fun fact the brain named itself
Dude...
Nay, the mouth names the brain.
No, your brain's parent brains named your brain
@@quantumquackery Nay nay. The brain told the mouth what to say.

Was waiting for the Legally Distinct VSauce music sting ngl
the video pretty much doesn't talk about Mewtwo, but instead real-world brain science. Pretty dang good video
Never expected to see a Bikermice from Mars reference omg xD
Btw, I really advice to read:
Think and grow rich - Napoleon Hill
How to make friends and influence people - Dale Carnegy
These books will make you think about A LOT of stuff ;)
I just want one episode of Lockstin doing a puppet show with Rayquaza and Alakazam
>mega alakazams head doesn't change
>Its legs and ...ears? Horns? get smaller
>It gets smarter.
Clearly this is because it has less surface area and can redirect those neurons to smartness. Yeah. Totally makes sense. heh.
Me: New video about Pokémon!
Lockstin: You activated my trap card! Let me show you some amazing stuff from nature and science!
Me: Omg I love it!
Maybe the increased brain size with decreased body mass means those sensory abilities are strengthened. Psychic powers are often linked to sense.
Anyone else want Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness for Switch as much as I do.
Well....ya don't see elephants shunning others because they have a different favorite tree than the others
14:42 at this point in the video I remembered it was about pokemon lol
