The correct answer is neuroplasticity.

Neuroplasticity or brain plasticity is the property of the brain to change. Neuroplasticity can be observed at different levels. For example, changes at the cell level can affect connections between neurons (synaptic plasticity), while non-synaptic plasticity refers to changes in the intrinsic part of the neuron. On the other hand, larger-scale changes are usually made by environmental stimuli. Emotions may cause neuroplastic change through activity-dependent plasticity, which is significant for the recovery from brain damage.
