The capacity of a brain area to develop new neural pathways as it adjusts to good and bad experiences is known as

A) phrenology.
B) dendrites.
C) an action potential.
D) plasticity.

Plasticity

The brain's ability to change and adapt as a result of experience, including the formation of new neural connections throughout life.

Neural Pathways

These are networks of neurons in the body that transmit signals between different parts, crucial for processing information and coordinating actions.

Action Potential

A neural impulse; a brief electrical charge that travels down an axon.
