Bigger Not Necessarily Better, When It Comes to Brains
November 18, 2009

Tiny insects could be as intelligent as much bigger animals, despite only having a brain the size of a pinhead, say scientists at Queen Mary, University of London.
“Animals with bigger brains are not necessarily more intelligent,” according to Lars Chittka, Professor of Sensory and Behavioural Ecology at Queen Mary’s Research Centre for Psychology and University of Cambridge colleague, Jeremy Niven. This begs the important question: what are they for?
Research repeatedly shows how insects are capable of some intelligent behaviours scientists previously thought was unique to larger animals. Honeybees, for example, can count, categorise similar objects like dogs or human faces, understand ’same’ and ‘different’, and differentiate between shapes that are symmetrical and asymmetrical.
“We know that body size is the single best way to predict an animal’s brain size,” explains Chittka, writing in the journal Current Biology. “However, contrary to popular belief, we can’t say that brain size predicts their capacity for intelligent behaviour.”
Differences in brain size between animals is extreme: a whale’s brain can weigh up to 9 kg (with over 200 billion nerve cells), and human brains vary between 1.25 kg and 1.45 kg (with an estimated 85 billion nerve cells). A honeybee’s brain weighs only 1 milligram and contains fewer than a million nerve cells.
While some increases in brain size do affect an animal’s capability for intelligent behaviour, many size differences only exist in a specific brain region. This is often seen in animals with highly developed senses (like sight or hearing) or an ability to make very precise movements. The size increase allows the brain to function in greater detail, finer resolution, higher sensitivity or greater precision: in other words, more of the same.
Research suggests that bigger animals may need bigger brains simply because there is more to control — for example they need to move bigger muscles and therefore need more and bigger nerves to move them.
Chittka says: “In bigger brains we often don’t find more complexity, just an endless repetition of the same neural circuits over and over. This might add detail to remembered images or sounds, but not add any degree of complexity. To use a computer analogy, bigger brains might in many cases be bigger hard drives, not necessarily better processors.”
This must mean that much ‘advanced’ thinking can actually be done with very limited neuron numbers. Computer modelling shows that even consciousness can be generated with very small neural circuits, which could in theory easily fit into an insect brain.
In fact, the models suggest that counting could be achieved with only a few hundred nerve cells and only a few thousand could be enough to generate consciousness. Engineers hope that this kind of research will lead to smarter computing with the ability to recognise human facial expressions and emotions.

This article is about how bigger is not necessarily better, when it comes to brains. Small insects might be as smart as animals that are larger than them, even though they have a tiny brain that is like a pinhead in size. Some animals, like honeybees, have the ability to count, see the similarities in dogs and the faces of humans, know about contrasts, and figure out the difference between shapes that are symmetrical and asymmetrical. When the brain is larger, the brain can work in better detail, sharper resolution, more sensitivity or better accuracy. Consciousness can be made with tiny neural circuits. Research might lead to smarter computing with being able to determine human emotions and expressions.

Insects are disgusting. All of them are.
Scientists are now figuring out that brains can process and work great even if they are the size of a pinhead. The bigger the brain does not mean the more intelligence, it just means your body is bigger and needs more and bigger nerve cells to control your movements and such. A honeybee can count, categorize, and tell same and different. A honeybees brain, though, holds less than 1 billion nerve cells (not alot). But still counting is said to take only a couple hundred nerve cells and consciousness about a thousand. So it is basically saying that the bigger the brain the more information you can store, but it doesn’t mean that you can think with higher complexity. Hopefully with this understanding scientists will be able to have smarter computing skills.

Lars Chittka, Professor of Sensory and Behavioural Ecology, says “Animals with bigger brains are not necessarily more intelligent.” Even tiny animals with brians that are no bigger than a larger animal’s can be more intelligent. Honeybees for a example, they have great math skills like dogs and humans. A humans brian weigh bewteen 1.45kg through 1.25kg compared to bee’s brian which ways 1 miligram. Studies show the increase of brain size do affect an animal’s capability for intelligent behaviour, many size differences only exist in a specific brain region
a honey bees brain is only 1miligram
9kilograms is how much a whales brain wheighs
just because little aoimals have small brains deos not mean that bigges animals are smarter

4. Insects can be as smart as bigger animals.
Some things have different size brains. some have big brains, others have small brains. Brains are big, others are small. I have a big brain.
Animals with bigger brains are not always smarter than humans.Some smaller animals such as insects, can do some things we humans can do. Insects are capable of doing things that bigger animals can’t do.A whales brain can get up to 9 kg .Researchers will lead to smarter computing with their research about brains.
Scientists have found out that animals that have bigger brains does not mean they are smarter. They have seen that insects are cable of having certain intelligent behaviors. Bees can count and categories similar objects. Bigger animals have bigger brains so they are more in control. In bigger brains there is not so much complexity but just endless repetition of the same neural circuits over and over. Advance thinking can be done with a smaller amount of neurons.
1Scientist think that bigger animals need bigger brains.
2 Scientist say that animals with bigger brains are not really morere intelligent.
3Scientists say that body size is the single best way to predict an animal’s brain size.
4Scientists suggests that larger animals may need larger brains simply because there is more to control.
5 While some increases in brain size do affect an animal’s capability for intelligent behavior many size differences only exist in a specific brain region.

1. Tiny animals might possibly be as smart as bigger animals.
2. If an animal has a bigger brain then another animal it doesn’t mean it’s smarter.
3. Insects are capable of doing things that bigger animals can’t do.
4.Honeybees can count and catorgorize simalar ojects.
5.Diffrences in brain sizes can differ for diffrent animals.
1.Scientist think that bigger animals need bigger brains and stuff.
2.Honybease can count and catorgorids smaller objeecks.
3.Tiny animals might possibly be as smart as bigger animals.
4.Animals with bigger brains are not necessarily more intelligent,” according to Lars Chittka, Professor of Sensory.
5.Research repeatedly shows how insects are capable of some intelligent behaviours scientists previously thought was unique to larger animals.
1.animals got bigger brain then human
2. we know there body size is single
3. While see there brain size is little

5. The fact of suggest
This article is about bigger not nessesary when it comes to brains. What that means is that insects with smaller brains may still be as smart as animals with larger brains researchers say. Bigger animals need bigger brain to control so that means they are not nessesarily smarted than the small animals. Some animals, like honeybees, have the ability to count, see the similarities in dogs and the faces of humans, know about contrasts, and figure out the difference between shapes that are symmetrical and asymmetrical. Research might lead to smarter computing with being able to determine human emotions and expressions.
1)Tiny insects could be as intelligent as much bigger animals.
2)this was said by scientists at Queen Mary, University of London.
3)Animals with bigger brains are not necessarily more intelligent,” according to Lars Chittka.
4)Research repeatedly shows how insects are capable of some intelligent behaviours scientists previously thought was unique to larger animals
5)Differences in brain size between animals is extreme: a whale’s brain can weigh up to 9 kg (with over 200 billion nerve cells), and human brains vary between 1.25 kg and 1.45 kg (with an estimated 85 billion nerve cells). A honeybee’s brain weighs only 1 milligram and contains fewer than a million nerve cells.
