The document presents a case study analyzing differences between male and female brains, noting that males have more weight and cells in the aggression center, while females exhibit a more compact structure dense with neurons. It discusses how male brains prioritize systemizing abilities, while female brains excel in empathizing and language, leading to a higher risk of language disorders in males. Overall, it emphasizes the evolutionary advantages of female brain development for social interaction and survival.

- 3. Summary According to the study by Dr. Louann; • Male brain is more heavy then female’s brain with 4% more cells. • Male’s brain 100 grams more in weight than female’s brain. • Female’s brain consists of the following features: 1. More Compact 2. Densely packed with neurons • Girls exceeding the boys by the ratio of 6:1 respectively. • Language centers are smaller than & located in one hemisphere. This puts males more at risk for language disorders i.e. dyslexia. • Male’s brain are more in aggression as compared to female’s brain due to growing of more cells in the aggression center.
- 4. Question: 1. Pondering the cited above passage, do you think that male brain superior than female brain in terms of aggression, support your answer logically. Answer: Yes, We do think that the male brain is superior then female brain in terms of aggression as when there is a search in testerone in the male’s brain it reduces the language center cell but there is not much evidence in this case to support the idea of the term aggression in a male’s brain.

- 6. Question: 2. Sociologists are of this opinion that female brain is larger enough then male , Identify the evidences from aforesaid passage. Answer: Yes, We do believe that a female’s brain is larger enough as a male because female’s brain is more compact & is full of neurons. Along with this, When a brain started it always begins as a female brain but after 8 weeks of conception then start to become a male brain. A female brain is much more socially interactive as it is much more into language as compared to male’s brain. Females brain also exceeds then male’s brain by a ratio of 6:1 respectively.
- 7. Question:3. Compare & contrast in terms linguistic capacity of both male & female brain. Answer: In females, the region associated with language & social interaction is significantly larger then males & located in both cerebrals, not just the left one as in males.
- 8. 1 How & 5 Whys? Question: HowMen's Brains Are Wired Differently Than Women's? Answer: The research, which involved imaging the brains of nearly 1,000 adolescents, found that males brain had more connections within hemispheres, whereas females brain were more connected between hemispheres. The results, which apply to the population as a whole and not individuals, suggest that male brains may be optimized for motor skills, and female brains may be optimized for combining analytical and intuitive thinking.
- 9. Question: 1. Whythere is a difference between the male and female brain? Answer 1. Because it has more testosterone, the male fetus is typically three weeks behind the female fetus neurologically at birth. Nature and evolution have given females this advantage in early brain development so that they're more likely to survive if born prematurely, as their childbearing potential makes women more valuable to a society than men. Question: 2. Why male brain relies on systemizing tendencies? Answer: 2. The male brain relies on systemizing tendencies to figure out how things work. A man searches for the underlying rules governing why a system behaves as it does. The goal is to understand the system so he can predict what will happen next. The female brain is better defined by its empathizing tendencies, which are driven to identify what another is thinking and feeling so that an appropriate response can be made. A woman’s goal in this case is to understand another in order to predict behavior and form an appropriate emotional connection.
- 10. Question: 3. Whyour brain is of plasticity? Answer: 3. Plasticity, or neuroplasticity, describes your brain’s ability to change and reorganize in response to your environment and/or actions. Plasticity is at the core of learning and memory. Each time you learn something new and practice it, your brain will either change the structure of its neurons (cells) or increase the number of synapses between your neurons, allowing them to send and receive information faster. It is your brain’s plasticity that allows you to learn names, recall memories and even to change the types of thoughts that you think. Question: 4. Why most of our brains are made up of white & grey matter? Answer: 4. Gray matter is composed mainly of brain cell bodies; while white matter is made up of brain cell tracks (think communication cables) that provide the connections between cells. They appear white because they are covered in a fatty substance known as myelin. Myelin, like insulation on copper wires, helps nerve cells work faster and more efficiently. A consistent finding is that females have a higher percentage of gray matter compared to males, while males have a higher percentage of white matter.
- 11. Question: 5. Whyis there more risks for language disorder within male as compared to females? Answer: 5. Language centers are smaller than & located in one hemisphere. This puts males more at risk for language disorders i.e. dyslexia. Women are purported to have better communication skills and emotional intelligence than men.
