I just don’t quite understand, and perhaps no one really does. But what do we know? if computers store memories as ones and zeros how do we do it? And if all of your cells are dead and re-placed by new ones every what is it, 10 years? then how do we have memories that are older than that. can the brain train the newer brain cells to store the same memories and if so are there two copies of the same memory? I’m losing my mind guys thank you

I was under the impression that memories are a product of firing of specific pathways between nerve cells. It’s that route the signal takes through the nerves cells in your brain that is the memory. I’m curious and looking to see what a neuro biologists answer would be, so don’t take that for the ultra correct answer. That said it’s a tricky question to explain to a five year old.
