How did the brain get bigger when Neanderthals had bigger brains than us? How do your mind send signals to the rest of your body? What does your brain look like and how big is it (not the weight)?

how did the mind get from being basic to complex?

how come our thoughts can not control things like our heart rate, body temperature, how fast our fingernails grow etc..???

what caused the brain to in crease its ability and capacity rather than just staying the way it is??

are neurons made or are we born with the number we have?

are there different kinds of neurons??
