Brendan is a one-year-old boy and recently suffered an injury to the part of the brain that controls language. On examining him, the neurologist says that other areas of the brain will assume functions of the damaged part and he will not lose the ability to speak or understand a language. The neurologist bases this diagnosis on the _____ of Brendan's brain

A) plasticity
B) carcinogenicity
C) elasticity
D) immunogenicity

Respuesta :

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Brain plasticity is a phenomenon referring to how the brain re-organised itself in early stage of maturity, during injury and through adulthood when new knowledge is learnt or memorized. In case of injury the brain forms new neural pathways to compensate for the one that had been lost. This usually vacillated by genetic factors as well as environment the person is exposed to.
