The human brain is an amazing organ, capable of surprising feats of memory, susceptible to damage, and yet remarkably adaptable to change. It does so much but what is the actual size of the brain?
While the human brain has a structure similar to that of other mammals, what makes it so very different is its size in relation to body size. Compared to the size of our bodies, human beings have much larger brains than many other mammals.
The Size of the Human Brain
In terms of weight, the average adult human brain weighs in at 1300 to 1400 grams or around 3 pounds.
In terms of length, the average brain is around 15 centimeters long.
For comparison, a newborn human baby's brain weighs approximately 350 to 400 grams or three-quarters of a pound.
Men tend to have bigger brains than women. After taking overall body weight into account, men's brains tend to be approximately 100 grams larger than women's.
In women, parts of the frontal lobe and limbic cortex (areas associated with problem-solving and emotional regulation, tend to be bigger than those of men.
In men, the parietal cortex (associated with the perception of space) and amygdala (linked to social and sexual behavior) tend to be larger than those in women.
Neurons are the structures that serve as building blocks of the brain and nervous system. They transmit and carry information, allowing different parts of the brain to communicate with one another as well as allowing the brain to communicate with various parts of the body. Researchers estimate that there are around 100 billion neurons in the human brain.
