What distinguishes man from animals is accurate.
It is true that we eat, we sleep and reproduce like them. We are flesh and bone
like them and even some we are part of the family of mammals like them.
Above all, we are mortals like themselves. Very often, many animals are superior to us in agility, speed, sensory abilities. Some are much stronger than us, and some live even longer than us.
The question is: are we really superior to animals? If yes, how?
Physically, we are less powerful than the animals.
What sets us apart from animals is our particular moral conscience, our
spirituality and our intelligence. All these capabilities are produced by our brain.
Most neurons located in the outer layer of the brain, the cerebral cortex,
are not directly related to muscles and sensory organs.
This is the case, for example, billions of neurons in the frontal lobe. Observations brain
MRI showed that the frontal lobe is activated when we think of a word or that one is
memory function.
If we are what we are, especially in the anterior part of your brain we must. The prefrontal cortex plays an important role in the development of thought, intelligence, Motivation and personality. It links the elements of experience necessary to production of abstract ideas, trial, perseverance, planning, attention to others and consciousness. This is developed in this region that distinguishes beings humans from other animals. We have evidence of this distinction in what humans doing in areas like mathematics, philosophy and justice, which are appeal mainly to the prefrontal cortex.
Humans have a flexible and large prefrontal cortex, which gives them powerful
mental faculties, so that in animals, this brain region is rudimentary or
non-existent. The contrast is so striking that biologists speak of the "mysterious
explosion of brain size.
Other parts of the brain contribute to our uniqueness. At the rear of the prefrontal cortex is
a transverse band: the motor cortex. It contains billions of neurons connected to our
muscles. He also has characteristics that make us very different from monkeys and
other animals. The primary motor cortex gives us "1) the unique ability to use the
hand, fingers and thumb to perform manual tasks requiring great dexterity, and
2) the ability to use the mouth, lips, tongue and facial muscles to talk.”
However, we must remember that animals have much to teach us. They are sometimes wiser than us because they do not destroy the planet. They do not pollute and live in harmony with nature. To really become superior to them, should we respect our habitat?
