The Ability of Rats to Learn Among Different Textures Provides

The ability of rats to learn among different textures provides evidence that

A) rats and mice tend to use their forepaws just as often as they do their whiskers to learn about their environment.
B) rats and mice tend to use their forepaws more often than they use their whiskers to learn about their environment.
C) the whisker-to-brain innervation is highly plastic and adapts to the environmental demands (e.g., different textures) .
D) the whisker-to-brain innervation requires that (nearly) all whiskers be intact in order for the rat to learn and successfully navigate his environment.
E) the whisker-to-brain innervation is active only when the whiskers are deflected by some solid texture.
