The brains' brains are indeed remarkable, although the brainstem power of the human brain is greatly superior. But a new study shows that the individual members of the swarm , the bees, have a behavior that remarkably resembles the activity of the neurons in the human brain. And that not only tells us about bee communication, but it can also help us understand how our own brains make decisions. A team of scientists from Sheffield University, UK, has applied a theoretical model that describes human psychology to the behavior of bees .
Scientists have watched the European Apis mellifera bee, in particular the division of hives and the search for a new home. They have analyzed the data on how quickly colonies make decisions about choosing the various new homes suitable for homes. Then they put the data into a simulation psychophysical model to see if there is any match. They analyzed the information, and so on. a law by Piero, who claims that we make decisions more often when the two choices are of high quality. In addition, they analyzed the data, and according to Hick's law, claiming that the brains take longer to choose when the number of possible options increases.
Human brain solutions use the actions of individual nerve cells that emit electrochemical signals. A bee in the process of selecting a new hive comes down to communication and actions of bees scouts that exchange signals about their findings through visual demonstration of shaking body.
It turned out that the shakes of bee bodies and the transmission of signals from the neurons are subject to the same general laws describing the decision-making. "Our results also support the hypothesis that colonies of bees are similar to complete organisms such as human," says computer scientist and lead author of the study, Andrea Giovanni reintegration.
