[ Minute of Science: Your brain it's divided in 3 main parts]

For many years we had intuit that our brain is divided into two main parts, right hemisphere and left hemisphere. But the truth is that our brain is actually divided into three parts. ¿? First, let's familiarized uswith the right question...

¿How does our brain work?

The cerebral functioning consists of the transmission of information between the neurons, this transmission is realized by means of a more or less complex procedure denominated synapsis. And to undestand this first we need a basic map, here's when we get to see: "oh, there are quite myths about the brain and neuroscience out there". The brain was not divided into two parts as everyone believes.

• Cortex Brain: The rational related part, logic, abstraction and making a decision.

• Limbic Brain: The part which manages your emotional capacity, cotidian behavior related.

• Brain Reptile: The part related with survival and basic functions and fear related part.

The study of brain structure and function is called neuroscience and it is begining the exploration of what they don’t yet know fully: The human mind.
