The correct answers are hardware; software.

Answer 1: Mental hardware refers to physical structures that are inbuilt and allow our mind to operate. These physical structures include areas of our brain, the interaction between brain areas, synaptic connections, neurotransmitters, etc. According to the <span>information processing model, physical structures of our brain allow us to think, make decisions and process information. 

Answer 2:</span>According to the information processing model, mental software refers to processes our mind uses to retrieve, manipulate and recall information. Mental software, unlike mental hardware does not involve the direct use of physical areas or functioning of the brain. Instead, it involves thoughts and other cognitive processes that are indirectly associated with brain areas and functioning.

Why is it important to cite other people’s work in your research?
Arisa [49]
You must give credit to the source of your information on a written document or an oral presentation, to do otherwise would be to commit fraud.  The offense is titled plagirism.  It means you have taken anothers property (their knowledge) and presented it as your own rather than giving them credit for the information.  Simply re-phrasing an idea may or may not be enough to rise above the offense but its best to stay on the up and up.

MRI scans indicate that well-practiced pianists have a larger-than-usual auditory cortex area, the area that encodes piano sound
lara [203]

Answer:

This best illustrates: plasticity.

Explanation:

Our brains possess the amazing ability to change and adapt when we learn something, or even to find new paths and connections when they suffer some type of damage. That ability is called neuroplasticy, or simply plasticity.

When our brains find new paths or move functions from an area that is damaged to an undamaged area, that is called functional plasticity. <u>The type of plasticity described in the question, concerning the pianists, is called structural plasticity. It means the pianists' brains actually changed their structure as a result from learning and practicing to play the piano. Their auditory cortex is larger than what it would be in other people due to their learning.</u>
