A parent of a newborn who has mental retardation asks the nurse to explain what the pediatrician meant then he said, The brain of the newborn has anatomic plasticity.
 
   Which of the following statements by the nurse would best explain anatomic plasticity? a. This means nerve cells in certain brain areas can assume functions of a different area, or signals can be rerouted around a nonfunctioning area.
  b. The brain is in a bony cage that, like hard plastic, will not give, and so parents must use caution to protect the head at all times.
  c. The brain is heartier than previously thought and has a harder surface on the outer layer of the brain.
  d. This is referring to the pliability of plastic, which is soft, and to the electric conductivity of plastic, which transmits signals rapidly.
