Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The area of the brain responsible for vision, hearing, and language is the primary sensory cortex, which undergoes significant synaptogenesis during infancy but experiences a decline in synapse formation by early childhood. This is due to the process of synaptic pruning, which eliminates unused connections to streamline neural processing efficiency.
