Understand brain plasticity, but my professor keeps responding to me that I am to graphic which is surprising to me because I am describing the brain and he always marks me low for being to descriptive. I get the same response on every assignment so I must be doing something wrong.
One of the most exciting findings in biopsychology is that the developing brain has the capacity for a great deal of plasticity. It is known that the brains of preadolescent individuals are more plastic than those of adults. That is, they can recover from brain injury much more rapidly and completely than adults. First, describe what is meant by plasticity. Then, discuss what factors might account for the differences of more rapid recovery from brain injury in preadolescents compared to adults
