(2004)‚ said: “experiments have repeatedly demonstrated environment-dependent change in the brain‚ which happens as the connections between neurons become more extensive‚ become more or less active‚ or even extend into new parts of the brain.” Which mean there is some changes happen on our brain in the neurons. Carr (2010)‚ think that technology make memorizing minus. Maybe this means that people’s brain will be Weaker because of their dependence in technology. But other experience shows that majorities

Contrary to popular belief‚ our brains do not reach adulthood and stop changing or growing. Although there are limitations‚ such as our inability to heal brain damage the way we heal other body parts‚ human brains continue to generate new neurons well past when was originally thought. This process is called neurogenesis‚ and until recently‚ was seen as a development only occurring in embryonic and perinatal stages in mammals. Luckily‚ this continues throughout life‚ and is beneficial to college
