Which of the following is TRUE about brain plasticity?

A) It is inhibited by the presence of sprouting.
B) It is possible because of "redundancy".
C) It becomes more likely to occur as we age.
D) It is far more common in boys than in girls.

Brain plasticity, also known as neuroplasticity, refers to the brain's ability to change and adapt as a result of experience. This adaptability is partly due to "redundancy" in the brain's wiring, meaning that multiple pathways can achieve the same function, allowing the brain to compensate for injury or changes in the environment.
