We found that we have, on average, 86 billion neurons, 16 billion of which are in the cerebral cortex, and if you consider that the cerebral cortex is the seat of functions like awareness and logical and abstract reasoning, and that 16 billion is the most neurons that any cortex has, I think this is the simplest explanation for our remarkable cognitive abilities.
我们发现我们平均有 860 亿个神经元 其中有 160 亿个存在于大脑皮质里 而且如果你认为大脑皮质 是下列功能的基础， 意识,逻辑和抽象推理， 那么，这160 亿个神经元 对大脑皮质来说是最重要的 我想这是最简单的說明 对于我们卓越的认知能力。
