Answer:
0.16 times per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
energy(cortex) = volume(cortex) * spike_rate(cortex) * c
energy(brain) = volume(brain) * spike_rate(brain) * c
For c a constant.
Thus,
energy(cortex)/energy(brain) = volume(cortex) * spike_rate(cortex)/volume(brain) * spike_rate(brain)
From figures given above then, we can estimate:
0.44 = 0.8 * 0.16/spike_rate(brain)
spike_rate(brain) = 0.8 * 0.16 /0.44 = 0.29
Or for a high estimate:
0.44 = 0.8 * 1/spike_rate(brain)
spike_rate(brain) = 0.8 * 1 /0.44 = 1.82
