Answer:

Neuroplasticity

Step-by-step explanation:

Neuroplasticity is the ability of the brain to change its structure during growth and adapt to different situations occuring in the environment by forming new connections between neurons

In cases of injuries, the brain adapts by forming new neurons and helps the body heal through this process of neuroplasticity.
