Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies of Albert Einstein's brain have shown that his frontal lobes, which are responsible for cognitive processes such as reasoning and planning, had extra convolutions, or folds, compared to the average human brain. This suggests that Einstein's brain had a greater capacity for these types of cognitive processes. The other options are incorrect, as studies have shown that Einstein's brain was not necessarily heavier or larger than average, and did not differ significantly in other measurable ways.
