According to the video, consciousness is described as what kind of experience?

• Easily explained by current science

• A mystery involving both physics and biology

• A byproduct of diet

• A purely social construct

Which type of scientist collaborated on the primary theory discussed?

• Evolutionary biologist and psychologist

• Anesthesiologist and quantum physicist

• Computer scientist and artist

• Chemist and historian

The video suggests that consciousness might have arisen how?

• Only after life evolved complex brains

• Through simple chemical reactions

• From quantum processes tied to the fabric of the universe

• From social interaction

One implication of the video’s hypothesis is that consciousness:

• Is fully explained by neurons only

• Might not be solely dependent on the brain

• Has no physical basis

• Is irrelevant to understanding life

What is one reason this video pushes you to think deeply, not just recall facts?

• It makes definitive claims

• It invites questions about what consciousness means

• It has a catchy soundtrack

• It explains simple biology
