Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Angela's reporting of hand sensations when her face is touched suggests that her brain has undergone a reorganization after her amputation, and the regions that used to process sensory input from her hand are now responsive to input from her face. This phenomenon is called phantom limb sensation and is evidence that the brain is capable of restructuring and adapting after damage. It does not suggest rigidity of brain function or that bodily signals are not sent to specific brain areas, nor does it speak to the localization of pain.
