The evolution of the central sulcus is theorized to have occurred in mammals when the complete dissociation of the original somatosensory cortex from its mirror duplicate developed in placental mammals such as primates, [1] though the development did not stop there as time progressed the distinction between the two cortices grew.
The cerebellum (pl.: cerebella or cerebellums; Latin for "little brain") is a major feature of the hindbrain of all vertebrates.Although usually smaller than the cerebrum, in some animals such as the mormyrid fishes it may be as large as it or even larger. [1]
The human brain is the central organ of the nervous system, and with the spinal cord, comprises the central nervous system.It consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum.

A likely origin for the "10% myth" is the reserve energy theories of Harvard psychologists William James and Boris Sidis.In the 1890s, they tested the theory in the accelerated raising of the child prodigy William Sidis.
Brain–body mass relationship for mammals [dubious – discuss]. Brain–body mass ratio, also known as the brain–body weight ratio, is the ratio of brain mass to body mass, which is hypothesized to be a rough estimate of the intelligence of an animal, although fairly inaccurate in many cases.
The brain of Albert Einstein has been a subject of much research and speculation.Albert Einstein's brain was removed within seven and a half hours of his death.His apparent regularities or irregularities in the brain have been used to support various ideas about correlations in neuroanatomy with general or mathematical intelligence.
In grammar, a part of speech or part-of-speech (abbreviated as POS or PoS, also known as word class [1] or grammatical category [2] [3]) is a category of words (or, more generally, of lexical items) that have similar grammatical properties.
