Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question explicitly states that changes in the structure and function of something lead to changes in cognitive performance. Based on current understanding in the field, it is mostly changes in the brain that underlie changes in cognitive performance. While physical activity can certainly contribute to improvements in brain structure and function, it is not the sole driving factor. Therefore, choices A and D can be eliminated. Choice B includes both the body and brain, but the question suggests that only one option is the primary driver of cognitive changes, and research indicates that it is the brain.
