Neuroplasticity

Draganski et al

________ studied neural pruning in response to the behavior of learning.

Neuroplasticity

________ can be observed on different scales.

MRI scans

________ were conducted on all participants and were compared between the drivers and non- drivers.

Maguire et al

________ investigated the neuroplasticity of the brain in relation to natural settings.

Synaptic plasticity

________ depends on the activity of the neurons.

Jugglers

________ spent three months learning a simple juggling routine, followed by three months where they were instructed to stop practicing.

neural pruning

Thus, ________ helps in the efficient conduction of impulses along with the nervous system, as it removes inefficient or unused connections, and allows neurons to form new connections with other adjacent neurons that are fired frequently.

largest scale

On the ________, neuroplasticity takes the form of cortical remapping, which is where one area of the brain takes over the function of another area of the brain.

Jugglers

________ spent three months learning a simple juggling routine followed by three months where they were instructed to stop practicing.

Neural pruning

________ is the process in which the synaptic connections between connected neurons fall apart.

Neuroplasticity

________ is defined as the ability of the brain to change itself in response to environmental demands.
