@oh_em_gia our neurons range from 4 to 100 microns, a micron is 0.000039 inches! I found this pic to help compare!

@emkgibbs My group found that some aspects of facial recognition, kind of similar to this display, are established in the occipital lobes

Neurons send signals to one another through their dendrites and axons! #YourBrainWCUs15 @DrJ_wcu

It takes about 1/100 of a sec for a signal to travel down the longest neuron in the body! #YourBrainWCUs15 @DrJ_wcu

Your perception changes depending on which areas of the brain are damaged! #YourBrainWCUs15 @DrJ_wcu

@Bri_baby247 I found this activity easier than my friend because I had done one of these before. I wonder if practice makes this easier!

@bo652867 @DrJ_wcu This was awesome! I was really confused by the homunculus when we first started learning and this was a great example!

@DrJ_wcu @TheBeeisSilent My roommate & I took turns seeing who had faster reactions! It was cool seeing how different people react to things
