    The human brain processes around 60 bits of information per second, though those with higher IQs process slightly faster. The nervous system uses neurons to send electrical signals between the brain, skin, organs, glands and muscles to control movement and sensation. The nervous system is vital to our health as it guides everyday activities, automatic functions like breathing, and complex cognitive processes such as thinking, remembering, and feeling emotions.

    ASYNCHRONOUS TASK

    1. How fast does the brain process information?


    - Psychologists recently found an estimate of around 60 bits per second for the maximum
    processing speed of the human brain. Others have established that everyone's brain has a
    similar processing speed, although those with a higher IQ are slightly faster

    2. How does the nervous system control every organ system in the human body?
    - Nervous system uses specialized cells called neurons to send signals, or messages, all over your
    body. These electrical signals travel between your brain, skin, organs, glands and muscles. The
    messages help you move your limbs and feel sensations, such as pain.

    3. Why is the nervous system so important to our body?


    - The nervous system plays a role in nearly every aspect of our health and well-being. It guides
    everyday activities such as waking up; automatic activities such as breathing; and complex
    processes such as thinking, reading, remembering, and feeling emotions.
