their brain ratio (to body mass)

Why should brain mass/ body mass be a criterion? Unless brain cells are smaller for smaller creatures.

Does a bigger body require a bigger brain to do the same things? If not, whatever is left over after doing the same motor and reflex functions as a smaller body is available for being clever.

I think I have an answer.. what's yours?
