Which statement about brain plasticity is true? a highly plastic cerebral cortex has a low capacity for learning. damage to a highly plastic cerebral cortex means that the abilities it controls cannot be recovered. areas of a highly plastic cerebral cortex are not yet committed to specific functions. the brain is the most plastic during adolescence.

Areas of a highly plastic cerebral cortex are not yet committed to specific functions.

Explanation:

The cerebral cortex is formed by the gray matter (which contains the neuron's cell body), and is also the site of the most sophisticated and distinctive neural processing. It is a thin layer, the outermost of the vertebrate brain, which has a thickness that can vary from 1 to 4 mm. It coats the white medullary center of every brain. It is considered one of the most important parts of the nervous system, after all, it is in the cerebral cortex that the impulses produced by the sensory pathways and where they are interpreted will arrive. It is also from the cortex that the nerve impulses that initiate and command voluntary movements come out. It is the center of understanding and reason, responsible for memory, perception and language.  

The cerebral cortex has plastic capacity, which is important in an injured situation, however, many areas of a highly plastic cerebral cortex are not yet committed to specific functions.
