Role in Thinking The human brain’s structure allows humans to think critically. This action occurs in the cortex of the human brain (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ 2007). The cortex of the brain is the wrinkled-layer on the outer part of the brain (Kirby and Goodpaster‚ 2007). The cortex contains ten billion neurons and many more nerve cell connections (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ 2007). A new connection is created any time a new memory is formed (Cherry‚ 2014).

senses result in playing a critical role in perception and behavior. “Are we sure of our sensual perceptions?” (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ 2007‚ p. 316 ) Do we have our facts correct? Do we have the data right? “Have we listened acutely and sensitively? Can we trust the speaker or writer?” (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ 2007‚ p. 316) Are we confident that our memory is accurate? (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ 2007). These questions must be asked before making decisions‚ as our perception of the situation affects our decision

through hearing‚ touching‚ seeing‚ smelling‚ tasting‚ and feeling (Kirby & Goodpaster‚ pg 54). Sensory perception is crucial to a healthy‚ mobile body because the nerves in our body are sending feedback constantly (Baxter‚ 2013). All information is collected from our senses in the brain‚ then organized and used for our activities.

Critical thinking is influenced by memory in that our brain is like a database that stores past information which determines how we deal with current situations. Thinking has set the boundaries for our past choices in life (Kirby and Goodpaster 2007). From past experiences I have learnt that a behavior that affects you negatively is not easily repeated. For example‚ when I was a child I almost drowned and because of that I have a phobia for water. Now‚ as an adult‚ I will not go in water
