The brain is mostly composed of which substance?
Correct answer: Fat
MagnifiKit7170
Silly me...I thought it was "fat".
Gart
Misleading. Technically the answer is water - only because the cytoplasm of cells is largely water. Brains are actually made of two types of cells - fat cells and neurons. I think fat is a better answer.

I once heard a joke : the human brain works 24/7. It only stops when you fall in love and when you have an exam to ace

MagnifiKit7170, I just watched a "who wants to be a millionaire" episode from 2016, and the correct answer to the question "which organ is 60% fat," was the brain. so now I'm confused. lol

The most amazing, mysterious, and complex organism in existence is pondering a question about itself, calling upon stores of knowledge to answer the question, then smarting off to other organisms like itself in the remarks. A pile of tissue that knows that it exists, and wants to know why. Our brains are beyond amazing!

Uninitialized, The answer today is fat
Player #120374466
MagnifiKit7170, I thought so too. Since the brain is supposed to be made of cholesterol, which is a fat

Lionessa, thank you!

It would be nice to get just one science-based question without this forum being turned into a revival meeting.
joey
Rachel.A, or have an organism

Uninitialized, Both water and fat could be right, depending on the context. Also, fat would contain some water in the body.
PerkyLin
MagnifiKit7170, In a way, you are correct. The question and answers are somewhat confusing. But water and fat could both be said to be right, depending on how you look at it.

MagnifiKit7170, But some are ! Haha. Mine is full of air,

Player #49535703, I just looked it up and it states that the brain is 80% water, 10% fat and 10% protein, carbohydrates, soluble organic and salt, so I guess it depends on what source you consult for information…

TimeWaster, and that water is technically cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

the brain is the information and knowledge filter between our spirit self and our human form. it dumbs us down

From everything I've read the correct answer is Fat. Do these questions not get fact checked?
TechMo
Gart, I agree Gart!!!
TimeWaster
I looked this up and it says 60 fat, remaining 40 water
