The brain is thought to produce an excess of neurons and synapses so that it can be responsive to many different kinds so sensory and motor simulation. This responsiveness also results in synaptic and neural degeneration when the neurons that are not stimulated do not continue to function. This aspect of brain development is termed. a. Cerebral b. Cerebral lateralization c. Plasticity d.

Explanation / Answer

Answer : C : Plasticity is forming new connections and deleting unused connections. It deals with neurons and synapse

Myelinization is the development of the myelin sheath around a nerve fiber

Cerebral lateralization deals with hemispheres of the brain.

Cerebral cortexification deals with cortex of the brain
