How are the Brain and Mind related to each other?

The mind is believed to be what the brain does, by many psychological scientists. The brain is the organ in which there are many neurons and brain cells that contribute to the passing of neurological impulses and sensors. The brain consists of several parts that perform different functions. For example, the frontal lobe is responsible for abstract thought and memory, whereas the cerebellum controls all of the involuntary functions of the body such as circulation and immunity responses. The mind is made up of the thoughts and feelings that we as individuals have. Our ability to think, solve, feel emotion towards things. Our mind sometimes even affects our physical nature. It can make us sick, or react in unexplainable ways.

  1. You could have some discussion about whether the brain and the mind are separate or intertwined (-1)
