This is an open ended question

If i want to explain this on my theory (well ... it can't be called a theory .. but ).Originally posted by GlamGein
Simply, consciousness is awareness (of being, perhaps). Intelligence is the manifestation of understanding.
As a side note, many noted scientists could be considered retards if they were criticized about their consciousness. Darwin is a popular example. Where would he be without the consciousness of his friends?

What is the relationship between consciousness and intelligence?
Consciousness refers to the state of being aware of one's thoughts, feelings, and surroundings. It includes the ability to perceive and process information, make decisions, and experience emotions.
Consciousness and intelligence are closely related, as they both involve the ability to process and understand information. However, while consciousness is more focused on the subjective experience of awareness, intelligence is often measured by problem-solving abilities and cognitive skills.
At present, there is no widely accepted way to measure or quantify consciousness. While there have been theories and attempts to create metrics for consciousness, it remains a complex and subjective concept that is difficult to measure objectively.
There is ongoing debate and research on whether consciousness is unique to humans. While some argue that other animals and even plants may possess some level of consciousness, others maintain that human consciousness is distinct and more complex than that of other beings.
The development of consciousness and intelligence in humans is a complex process that begins at birth and continues throughout life. It is influenced by a combination of biological, environmental, and social factors, and can vary greatly among individuals.
