Brain definition

A functionally similar portion of the invertebrate nervous system.

A brain is defined as a smart or intellectual person.

A bundle of nerves in many invertebrate animals that is similar to the vertebrate brain in function and position.

The definition of a brain is the mass of nerve tissue located in the head of animals with spinal cords; it is the center of thought and controls movement.

The control center, as of a ship, aircraft, or spacecraft.

The portion of the vertebrate central nervous system that is enclosed within the cranium, continuous with the spinal cord, and composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, receiving and interpreting sensory impulses, and transmitting information to the muscles and body organs. It is also the seat of consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion.

A functionally similar portion of the invertebrate nervous system.

To dash out the brains of; to kill by smashing the skull.

(slang) To strike (someone) on the head.

The primary director or planner, as of an organization or movement.

To hit on the head or kill by hitting on the head.

The mass of nerve tissue in the cranium of vertebrate animals, an enlarged extension of the spinal cord: it is the main part of the nervous system, the center of thought, and the organ that perceives sensory impulses and regulates motor impulses: it is made up of gray matter (the outer cortex of nerve cells) and white matter (the inner mass of nerve fibers)

A comparable organ in invertebrate animals.

To dash out the brains of.

(slang) To hit hard on the head.

The portion of the vertebrate central nervous system that is enclosed within the cranium, continuous with the spinal cord, and composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, receiving and interpreting sensory impulses, and transmitting information to the muscles and body organs. In humans, it is also the seat of consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion.

The part of the nervous system in vertebrates that is enclosed within the skull, is connected with the spinal cord, and is composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the control center of the central nervous system, receiving sensory impulses from the rest of the body and transmitting motor impulses for the regulation of voluntary movement. The brain also contains the centers of consciousness, thought, language, memory, and emotion.
