why don’t we have fat and muscle surrounding our brains as an added protective layer over our skulls?
In: Biology
Brains are so fragile they literally float in a pool of fluid. When you get a concussion it means you hit your head hard enough for your brain to float through the fluid and bash into the inside of your skull.
Adding protections to the outside of your skull doesn’t prevent that from happening. And your skull itself really is quite durable.
