According to my research on studies conducted by various neurologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the statement that best explains this is that older adults compensate for losses by using more parts of their brains. As the body and mind get older parts of the brain being to fail or shutdown, and other parts pick up the slack by providing ways of coping or making up for the lack of processing.
