Which statement is correct regarding synaptic connections in the brain?
a)  Useful connections are strengthened by learning and experience, whereas connections that are not useful tend to wither away, leaving an efficient network of interconnected neurons.
b)  With proper stimulation, all neural connections continue to expand and multiply in scale as a person ages.
c)  The number of synaptic connections is low in childhood, reaches its peak by age 12, then slowly but steadily begins to decrease from that point through the remainder of a persons lifespan.
d)  The number of neural connections in the brain remains constant from birth to death because neurons cannot regenerate.
