the answer is plastics!

Ex.: plasticine, clay, soils, bread, butter, etc.
These are all physical properties of materials.
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.
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.
Think of plasticity as the opposite of elasticity. Elastic materials will deform under an applied force, but will return to their original shape when the force is removed. It is also the opposite of "easy to crack." We are not speaking of gasses or liquids. Plasticity is a property of many solids which tend to keep their new shape once deformed by an applied force. Soft metals like copper and lead are highly 'plastic.' They are easy to hammer into a new shape or draw out into a wire. Rock candy, peanut brittle, and high-carbon steel tools made for cutting have a very low plasticity. They are brittle. Rubber bands also have a low plasticity, as they return to their original shape when let go. Ironically, many types of plastic (vernacular usage) are easy to shatter under stress, and so have very little plasticity, by definition.
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections to compensate for injury or disease. This can lead to one brain area taking over functions of another damaged area, known as brain plasticity or cortical remapping. The degree of plasticity varies among individuals and depends on factors like age, type of injury, and rehabilitation.
These are all physical properties of materials.
Plasticity means the ability to be shaped and molded.
A plastic which will soften when heated and harden when cooled.

Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new connections between neurons. Factors that influence plasticity include age (plasticity decreases with age), environmental enrichment (such as learning new skills or engaging in stimulating activities), physical exercise, nutrition, and certain experiences or stimuli. Additionally, genetic variations can also play a role in determining an individual's level of brain plasticity.

No they do not.
Brain plasticity is the ability for an area of the brain (specifically in the cerebral cortex) to compensate for another area of the brain when there is brain damage. The four lobes (occipital, temporal, frontal, and parietal) are not pre-wired to commit itself to any specific function, but it starts to "commit" to certain functions after birth.
