Neurons! They do the work, and you have about 86 billion of them.
BRAINS! Not Just a ZOMBIE SNACK
33
And glial cells. They feed and support the neurons.
BRAINS! Not Just a ZOMBIE SNACK
34
You have about 86 billion of them, too!
BRAINS! Not Just a ZOMBIE SNACK
35
You've have most of these neurons since you were born!

The cerebrum is filled with good stuff like seeing, hearing, emotions, problem-solving, imagination, and memory,
BRAINS! Not Just a ZOMBIE SNACK
53
Sweet, sweet memories.

54
And the cerebrum is mouthwateringly wrinkled.
