The weight of the brain is three pounds for adults. The brain is protected by a buffer zone that is also found in the heart which is water like pack surrounding it.The brain allows us to have reason,love,create,think,forgive,remember, and survive. Fight or flight is basically your adrenaline that tells you to either fight or run when nedding to.

The brain weighs about 3 pounds for an adult. It is protected by a liquid layer called the buffer zone and the skull too.The brain allows us to control our body and tell it what to do in times of need. Fight or Flight is the body's way of reacting to a stressful or intimidating situation. It tells our body to fight or run when the situation demands it.

The weight of the average adult human brain is three pounds. The brain is prtected by a buffer zone, a pool of liquid that prevents the brain from daily bumps. The brain allows us to think, reason, love, forgive, create, and remember, as well as breath, digest food, and have reflexes. "Fight or flight" is a response to stress by animals to either fight or flee in emergencies.

For adults, the brain wieghs approximately 3 pounds. It allwos us to think, move, breathe, and do everything that has to do with living. It also gives us that adrenaline rush like whenever youre running from a sereal killer, or just riding a scary roller-coaster. Thank You Brain!!!

The weight of the brain is about 3 pounds for adults. The brain is protected by the skull and it allows us to feel many emotions and do daily and routinly things like digesting breathin and blinking as well as "fight or flight" which is basicly our reflexes like when u see a ball comeing towards you hopefully you hit it or dodge it.
