Q1: Why is the brain different to other parts of the body?

[Answer]

A body is a collection of organs. Each organ performs a particular task in the life of the body. For example the stomach digests food and the heart pumps blood.

The brain has a different task. It has to make all the organs work together to keep the body alive. It has to coordinate all the activities of the body.
