Thread: what part of your brain thinks?

the entirety of your brain is thinking, all the time

Not only if that were true would this result in a seizure (as thinking would mean constant firing), but it also contradicts large amounts of MRI and PET scans which clearly show little or no neurological activity in different parts of the brain at different times.

It also ignores the fact that some parts of the brain are hard-wired and respond to certain stimuli only; an example is a vestigal part of the human brain which responds to light; not every part of the brain thinks. Thinking is a higher thought process which depends on many basic processes.

psychology class

Wouldn't that be a Biology class? Or Neurology?
