Why daughters are faster than boys?

In adolescence, most girls appear mature, older than their peers. Scientists have discovered the cause of this phenomenon.

Over the years, regions in the human brain become smaller when unnecessary connections between cells are removed, creating a more efficient and organized set of apparatuses.

"This is part of the normal learning process. The brain is generally bulging but losing its connections at the same time. It's like you're at a party, everyone talks and you It is hard to hear if some voices are not silent, the same thing happens in the brain If some connections disappear, the brain will function more easily, " said Dr. Marcus Kaiser , a team member from the University of Newcastle (UK), explained.

Kaiser and colleagues used high-tech imaging to look deep inside the brains of volunteers aged between 4 and 40 years old. The results showed that the process of "useless" connections and the logical organization of the brain began at about 10 years of age in women, but it was not until 20 years of age in men to be implemented.

Cerebral magazine Cortex cited the study report, adding that the authors also found that, during the process of correcting brain alignment, key connections, at long distances between brain regions, were still told. save in both genders.

The discovery is considered a credible evidence, helping to decode the phenomenon of why adolescence and girls are often more mature and wise than boys.
