D)produces permanent changes in brain functioning.

Question

TMS can determine cause and effect between brain functioning and behavior, while fMRI only shows correlations. TMS does not expose people to radioactive material, but this is not its major advantage over fMRI. TMS also does not provide a higher-resolution image of brain structure and does not produce permanent changes in brain functioning, as its effects are temporary.
