Modern neuroscience research has shown that learning a new motor skill, such as juggling, and living in an enriched environment:
A) can make people more right-hemisphere dominant, and thus more creative.
B) can help shift functions from damaged to undamaged brain regions, a phenomenon called functional plasticity.
C) will reliably decrease average levels of GABA and acetylcholine.
D) can affect brain structures, such as the number and shape of neuronal dendrites and axon terminals, and the number of glial cells.
