Big Brain Questions

We have started to examine the parts of the nervous system. During class discussion some interesting question have been raised. Such as 
"How does the brain store memory?" 
" How does a human brain compare to a computer?" 
"About how many laptops would it take to equal the information processing of a human brain?" 


What are your big questions about the nervous system and how it works?
