A) velocity of action potentials
B) structure of dendrites and axons
C) chemical constituents of the ventricles
D) number of laminae in the cerebral cortex

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structure of dendrites and axons can be altered by experience through processes such as synaptic pruning and neuroplasticity, whereas the other options (velocity of action potentials, chemical constituents of the ventricles, number of laminae in the cerebral cortex) are largely determined by genetic factors.
