The brain controls the body through a constant series of electrical impulses. If the body is full of fluids and tissue then what stops the body from constantly short circuiting?
In:
Because our bodies aren’t just bags of water, and the electrical impulses in our bodies are not the same as electricity that we’re familiar with. Nerve impulses travel through the nervous system, which is made of cells that are made to conduct signals. They’re insulated. Also, our nerve impulses aren’t electrons moving, like the electricity we use. They’re voltage differences caused by different concentrations of ions. It’s a chemical process.
