Morphological plasticity is the tendency of a species to physically change appearance due selective breeding. Some species, like dogs, have a high degree of morphological plasticity - a few generations can turn a wolf into a chihuahua - whereas others, such as humans, have such a low degree that thousands of years of separation yields only minor changes to facial structure and hair type. The mechanisms which govern this effect are complex and numerous, but there seems to be a correlation between high plasticity and the species' natural rate of environmental adaptability.
While still solid, the asthenosphere is able to flow. The ability of a solid to flow is called plasticity. See "What's the matter?" for an activity to demonstrate plasticity. Since the asthenosphere is more liquid than the rest of the mantle, the broken lithosphere plates are able to "float" on it.
Neural networks have nothing to do with neutrons.
Yes, we have at least three form of synaptic plasticity including long term potentiation, short term potentiation and long term depression.
To answer your question the answer is the Mantle.
no
Brain plasticity is also known as neuroplasticity. It is the ability of the brain to modify itself by forming neural connections.

Neural plasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections in response to learning and experience. It allows the brain to adapt and change throughout life, enabling us to learn new skills, recover from injury, and adapt to new situations.

Plasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life in response to learning, experience, or injury. This adaptive quality allows the brain to be flexible and change in response to different stimuli and circumstances.

Plasticity means the ability to be shaped and molded.
Plasticity is a physical property.
Neuroplasticity or brain plasticity refers to the way that changes in neural pathways and synapses allow one part of the brain to "take over" damaged areas of the brain. It also refers to the brain's general ability to change as we age for both better and worse.
Plasticity (sociology), is the capacity for positive change in response to environmental demands.
The main role of the NMDA receptor in the body is in ensuring neural plasticity. Further research is on-going to further refine understanding of this receptor, and this conclusion may change in future as more studies may find further roles for this receptor.
