said Jasmine.
"Yep! That is all the general areas of a brain, now you have the power to go into the world a knowledgeable person and share it," Lily said with a smile.
Jasmine smiled back and left her house. She hopped out, smelled the outdoors air, and walked home.

is another way they differentiate. Males often make a literal map with left and rights and directions, while females remember landmarks and such. Males are more inclined to stutter and have learning disabilities, while females use higher vocabulary and grammar. In addition, males are less likely to have depression than females, but also are less likely to get help. Females are also more likely to fail a 🤬 attempt, considering they were in that situation. Most males have "male brains" and most females have "female brains", but some females have "male brains" and vice versa," Lily finished.

there is one factor that changes a lot of the brain. Gender! Before recent years, it was speculated that male and female brains are different because they were raised that way, but it has come to light that there are true biological differences between male and female brains. There are many things that are different. First of all, males are more likely to be more interested in details and systems than females. Males are also less inclined to touch each other and show physical affection than females," Lily said.

research has found many things that help your brains. One of them is getting more exercise. I actually tried doing that last week. Foremost, I felt happier and more clear of mind. That is because as I was exercising my brain released Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor proteins adn endorphins which act as an anti-stress and "brain-clear-er". In addition, exercise increases some brain cells, improves circulation, and helps build your immune system. Furthermore, it helps learning and memory by, scientist think, improving the blood flow.

many things you can do to create a good learning experience. First of all, you need to get enough sleep consistently. We talked previously about sleep, and without enough sleep one cannot retain and learn information as well. Another helpful point is, if you are in puberty to not do any hard brain work before 10:00, when your "body clock" is finally awake. It is also very important to not abuse substance when you are trying to create a good learning environment. You can also create a positive learning experience by having an open mind to learning, not doing busy work, and having a teacher who explains in a clear fashion." Lily said helpfully.

depression is one of the most common problems in the brain. People with depression may feel sad and angry all the time, have feelings of worthlessness, develop eating disorders, which can make you lose weight or gain weight, and have sleep problems. Another risk of depression is 🤬 and self-harm. Some people self harm because it is a way to feel something or take control. In addition, eating disorders often stem from self consciousness and feeling of obesity. Schizophrenia is mental illness in which the victim is not in touch with reality," Lily told in a respectful tone.

said Jasmine. "Thank you for teaching me so much, but I have to head home now. All this talk of sleep has made me tired."
"No problem. See you tomorrow." Lily said, as they got up.
Jasmine left and the very next day, she came back and they started their conversation again.
"We talked about t in the workings of the brain and sleep, so lets now talk about things that can go wrong. One of the main things is depression, which can lead to 🤬, self harm, eating disorders, and addiction. Another big problem is schizophrenia," Lily began again.

the protein gates "open" up, and sodium ion molecules flood into the neuron. This makes the inside of the neuron less negative compared to the outside of the neuron when a threshold is met of certain positivity, more     channels open. This creates a "wave" of opening channels down the axon.  It the wave skips the myelinated, or insulated portions, to the un-myelinated parts, also  known as the nodes of Ranvier. When the signal reaches the end of the neuron, the impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters. They enter the presynaptic terminal where the collection of chemicals is released into the synapse and is computed in the next neuron," Lily finished.

Without REM, it will be harder to learn and you will not be able to learn and retain information as well.  There are many things that you can do to help yourself get more sleep and feel more awake. For instance, have bright light in the morning, avoid caffeine after lunch, catch up on sleep on the weekends, and have the same calming bedtime routine," Lily warned.

is sleep. The pattern that all animals use for sleeping and waking is the circadian rhythms. Cells that are in charge of this are the "body clock". Melatonin is a chemical in the brain that makes you sleep. While adults only need 8 hours of sleep, most teenagers need at least nine and a quarter hours. If you don't get enough sleep, it will affect how your brain works. When a person doesn't get enough sleep, they may miss the rapid eye movement sleep (REM)," Lily informed.

not all emotions are created in the amygdala. For instance, the left prefrontal cortex is in charge of happiness, and opposite that, the right prefrontal cortex controls sadness. However, most emotions are centered in the amygdala. For instance, there is anger, stress, fear, and love centered in the amygdala," Lily continued.

the parts of the brain and how signals are transmitted. Now lets talk about the teenage brain. During puberty, a lot of things are different in the brain. Not only are there hormones, but also pruning of some neurons to make the brain stronger and the frontal lobe is less active and the amygdala takes care of some of its jobs. This is a problem because the amygdala is more of a gut reaction than logical thinking like the frontal lobe. One job of the frontal cortex that the amygdala now controls is the emotions on other peoples faces. This causes misinterpretation of some expressions because the amygdala has more gut reactions," Lily said.

now we will talk about how thoughts are transmitted in the brain. First of all, there are two general kinds of cells in the brain. Neurons, which are in charge of transmitting the thought, and glia which supply the neurons with nutrients and such. First, information is received somewhere. Then, it travels across neurons to be computed in the grey matter. The signal is received across a synapse. When the signal gets to a neuron's dendrites, the dendrite compute the neurotransmitters into an electrical impulse. The impulse is sent to the axon where it opens up its sodium ion channels." Lily taught.

Lily said. "That is a lot of talking. Do you want a glass of water?"
"Sure!" responded Jasmine with a smile. She was learning so much in just a couple of minutes.
They sat down on the couch and chatted for a couple minutes before returning to the original conversation.
"The parts of the brain are only the very basics to build on. The next step is learning about how things travel in the brain. Oh, I almost forgot! There is grey matter and white matter in the brain. Grey matter computes information and white matter sends the information to the grey matter." Lily continued.

It is where most of your emotion come from. There are many parts of the limbic system. For instance, there is the thalamus which 'sorts' all of the senses, except smell, of course. There is also the hypothalamus which regulates many things including body temperature, hunger, blood pressure, going to sleep, waking upand urination to name a few. The amygdala is another part of the limbic system and links emotions to an environment and is in charge of some memory. The last 'main part' of the limbic system is the hippocampus and its mainly in charge of long term memory" Lily said.

"There are also other parts of the brain"

Lily continued. "Such as the brain stem, which is in charge of your essential survival functions. The cerebellum is just under the occipital lobe and is in charge of controlling the muscles. There is also the Corpus Callosum which connects the left and right brain and sends messages between them. Something that is really interesting is that the left brain controls the right side movements and vice versa!"

Lily said. "First of all there are four main lobes of the brain. They are the temporal, which is in charge of hearing and speech and is located on the sides of the head, the frontal, which is behind your forehead and is in charge of reason and deciding, occipital, which is in charge of your sight and is located at the back of you head, and parietal, which is in charge of your other sensory input and is located on the top off the head."

"Of course, Jasmine! Come inside! First we will talk all about the teenage brain!"
"Great," Jasmine responded.

# data[].attributes.body
She walked over to Lily's house, knocked on her door, and said, "Hey Lily, I know this is abrupt, but could you talk to me about the brain?"

# data[].attributes.body
'I need to learn more about the brain. If something is inside me, I need to know what it is. I know! I will go talk to my friend Lily! She knows a lot about the brain'

Jasmine looked around, and thought to herself 'Everyone has a brain inside there skulls!"
