Batteries
It is so abnormal for me to think of axons as a battery system. I usually think of batteries as something so industrial and metallic. I don't really associate my organic brain with something like this. However, this just makes me realize that once again my definitions are limited. Actually, a battery is just a series of electrical currents, and of course my brain could act on this. I think of the brain as something so complex and mysterious, but once it's broken down it is really made up, just as we said in class, of boxes within boxes, all connected by cables. How is this any different than a battery?
