Question

using the brain by linda capito. (1) in the last few decades, scientists have made significant progress in using advanced technology to map the human brain. (2) in addition to answering questions about neurological disorders, this will help us to understand intelligence and behavior. (3) with machines, scientists can see how the brain uses neural pathways. (4) in the field of education, knowing more about how humans learn and how to access information and make new connections. (5) before large machines, educators relied on sociologists and psychologists for details about how students learned and how instruction could be changed to help students be more successful. (6) over the years, many theories and strategies were developed after hours of observation and experimentation. (7) the effect of these approaches on student achievement in education. they became important parts of the student experience. (8) as we move into the future, we will continue to learn more about the brain by using machines like the magnetic resonance imaging scanner. (9) using this information, another layer of understanding will develop as scientists continue their work. (10) in fact, in his blog paul kuban explains the way the brain works. “we already know that the brain is constantly growing and making new neural pathways, which means that student achievement or aptitude isnt fixed, but can keep growing.” (11) like a muscle, scientists believe the brain can also be challenged to do more with practice and that could change the way students think about their own academic performance. (12) students who put effort into growing their neural pathways could see improvement in their grades and test scores. which heading best conveys the content of paragraph 3? a. academics and achievement b. neural pathways and growth c. brain science and the future d. mri machines and the brain

Explanation:

Paragraph 3 discusses how students' neural pathways can grow with practice, and how this can impact academic performance and grades. It emphasizes the connection between neural - pathway growth and academic achievement.

Answer:

A. Academics and Achievement
