Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The work of Jacobs et al. focuses on the idea that practicing a specific skill can lead to an increase in the size of the brain region associated with that skill. Typists, tap dancers, and clarinet players all use specific physical movements or skills repeatedly, which could lead to an increase in the size of the brain regions associated with finger, foot, and musical scale representation, respectively. Singers, while they do use language, are not enhancing a specific brain region through physical movement or a skill that would lead to an increase in the size of the language representation area in the same way as the other occupations.
