Before the holidays, children bring diaries to the house with an extract of grades for a quarter. You can be sure that girls will get better grades than boys. Why so?
The explanation is before birth. The fact is that in boys and girls, the brain develops in different ways. However, using the necessary knowledge, you can help the boys.
What you need to know about brain growth?
In all children, the brain develops at high speed. In a few months, it turns from a cell into very complex structures. At the last stage, the fetus often has outstanding abilities. For example, he can recognize the parent’s voice, respond to his movements and kick back in response to anxiety. Thanks to ultrasounds, you can even see the movement of the mouth.
At birth, the brain is not fully formed, and its size does not exceed the accepted norm. The brain is fully formed over time. For example, only in adolescence do the speech sections of the brain form. That is why boys especially need reading while they are in primary school.
Sexual differences in the brain of the embryos are noticeable in the initial stages of its development. So, girls' brains develop faster than boys. Also, boys have no relationship between both hemispheres of the brain.
The brain of an animal consists of several parts. In some animals, for example, birds or lizards, it has a simpler structure and halves are only duplicated. So, as a result of a blow to the head, one half of the brain turns off and the other half automatically turns on. But in humans, half of the brain is responsible for its functions: the left - for logical thinking, and the right - for emotions, coordination of movements. Communication between the hemispheres occurs using a special fiber. In a boy, it is smaller, which means that their brain departments are not connected as strongly as in girls.
Various experiments show that when solving some problems, for example, solving crossword puzzles, boys use only one hemisphere, and girls use both. This can be easily seen with resonance imaging. The tomograph is scattered across the brains of girls, and in boys it is fixed in one half.
