Thank you! The most surprising (though maybe not most impactful) cards for me so far were the once on neurons: Sure. Mammals make up the minority of neurons, but HOW ON EARTH are 90 Percent of those from humans?
Also, 30% from fish? I would have expected fish to be negligible.
The content of those cards also represented the biggest update for me. I wouldn’t have guessed that the truth was roughly “two third of neurons are invertebrate neurons, one third of neurons are fish neurons”.
