Neuron-to-neuron connectivities and their role in learning and memory can increasingly be investigated from both empirical and modeling perspectives.

For these signals to be truly referential however, they must meet 3 criteria. In other words, even when the,benecial for many other species, they did not follow,mental pressures and must travel long distances to,get food, such as ungulates, but such pressures did,not force them to create more complex social sys-,tems to face these environmental challenges, ensure.reproduction, or even protect their offspring.Dunbar’s works, we can conclude that, although the,SBH does not remain robustly established, its works,on the evolution of human sociality and the cognitive,mechanisms that made it possible open an interes-,ting route to be explored more thoroughly. Croney and Newberry’s (2007) results also,support the SBH by suggesting that longer coexis-,tence among the group members fosters cognitive,dividuals, coordinate strategies of survival and domi-,nation, exchange and transmit information within the,group, improve social attention, use deception tac-,ging, found higher activity in prefrontal areas when,emotional states in other individuals, as well as when,identifying behaviors, manipulating and processing,information. Our research includes examining our behaviour today and how it differs from the majority of our evolutionary period when we lived in small social groups of around 150.aprofundamento do estudo, observamos que quando a atividade física for complementada com o Yoga, se tornará mais efi caz o tratamento e a prevenção do stress, promovendo melhor o bem-estar psicoenergético e a melhora da qualidade de vida sob os aspectos físico, emocional, intelectual, social e espiritual.
