Why do humans lose their memories before the age of three?
Who stole the memories of our infancy?
Have you ever experienced such a phenomenon in everyone? There is a group of adults surrounding themselves, talking and laughing about their childhood.
But I completely forgot what kind of experiences happened at that time, and it seems that these past memories have nothing to do with me.
This is a mystery that has been plaguing scientists in the scientific community for a long time.
Scientists try to use various methods to explain humans’ lost memories of their infancy, but no result can be completely believed by everyone.
Scientists once said that during the period before we humans learned to speak and communicate in language, they relied on pictures to store and retrieve memories.
Therefore, children in early childhood have relatively poor retrieval function for their own memories.
This causes them to lose their childhood memories.
However, with the observation of scientists, they found that children's memory loss will also occur in some animals, such as dogs, which is a very obvious example.
Dogs will also lose their memories like children in their infancy, but they will not communicate in words.
Strangely, they can also remember some of their own experiences.
This means that this is not the only reason that affects humans' lost memories during infancy, but perhaps another more mysterious reason.
Recent scientific research shows that children in infancy and infancy have relatively fast brain development, and children in this period develop very quickly in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.
At this time, the newly generated memory neuron and the neurons responsible for storing memories will conflict, and both sides will seize positions with each other.
This also causes the newly generated neurons to replace the previous neurons and generate new memory signals.
If we can consider it from this perspective, there is no such thing as conspiracy theory that there is a mysterious power that steals our memories before we were three years old.
In fact, the person who really stole the memory before the age of three is ourselves.
There are about 100 billion neurons in the brain of humans.
In the previous topic, we also mentioned that the distribution map of the human brain neurons is very similar to the distribution map of the universe galaxy.
Therefore, we can analyze the mysteries inside the brain from a macro perspective.
Scientists have also suspected that the universe galaxies are the brains of some kind of huge creature?
Although we have no conclusive evidence to show, at least we can be sure that it is as difficult as humans to thoroughly explore the mysteries of the universe.
