Brain
Every body function, including intelligence, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing, temperature, and hunger, is controlled by the brain, a highly developed organ.
The spinal cord, which protrudes from the brain, is a part of the central nervous system, or CNS.
An adult's brain typically weighs three pounds (1300 to 1400 grams).
The brain of a newborn human weighs between 350 and 400 grams or around 3/4 pounds.
The brain makes up around 2% of an adult person's body weight.
