Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A Correct. Anatomic plasticity refers to the ability of nerve cells in a certain area of the brain to assume the functions of a different area, or the signals can be rerouted around a nonfunctioning area. A newborn may be able to reassign portions of the brain to replace those lost through a hypoxic incident or to develop complementary abilities that compensate for deficits.
B Incorrect. A newborn's skull is more elastic than an adult's, the fontanelles are not yet closed, allowing the brain to grow in size. The statement that the brain is in a bony cage like hard plastic is incorrect. Additionally, this statement does not describe anatomic plasticity.
C Incorrect. This statement does not describe anatomic plasticity.
D Incorrect. This statement does not define anatomic plasticity.
