More than half of the brain's volume is made up of glial cells, which provide support, protection, and nourishment to neurons. These cells outnumber neurons and play crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis, forming myelin, and facilitating communication within the nervous system. The primary types of glial cells include astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia. Together, they contribute significantly to the overall structure and function of the brain.

How much more liquid is in a third vs half?

A third of a liquid is less than half. Specifically, a third (1/3) is approximately 33.33% of the total volume, while half (1/2) is 50%. Therefore, half has more liquid than a third by approximately 16.67% of the total volume.


What has more value - a truckload of nickels or half a truckload of dimes?

The half truckload of dimes is more valuable.If comparing the value of "half as many" dimes (10 cents) to nickels (5 cents), the value would be the same. But a "truckload," using the same type of truck, would be based on weight or volume. In either case, you have more value in the smaller, lighter dimes.The nickels are more than twice as heavy, and more than twice the volume:Nickel - 5.0 grams, volume 689 mm3Dime - 2.268 grams, volume 340 mm3


Can a person have a 300 IQ?

Not until we evolve further and use more of the brain a little over half that is genius level currently


What changes in dimensions would give a box with half the volume?

To achieve half the volume of a box, you can reduce one or more of its dimensions. For instance, if you keep the length and width the same, you could halve the height. Alternatively, you could reduce each dimension (length, width, height) by about 79.4% (since (0.5 = 0.794^3)), resulting in a uniformly smaller box that maintains proportions but has half the original volume.


What is the advantage of measuring volume rather than length of tumours?

Think of a plastic bag filled with water. It makes more sense to describe the amount of water within the bag by it's volume vice the bag's dimensions.
