The video explains the complexity of the human brain, highlighting its 170 billion cells, including 86 billion neurons that transmit signals and create brain waves. These waves enable the brain to process stimuli and manage bodily functions. The brain is divided into two hemispheres and four lobes, each responsible for different functions such as vision, memory, and spatial awareness. The central nervous system communicates through neural oscillations, or brain waves, which are crucial for sensory processing.
