And what seems to be going on is that, in the brain, those neural connections that are important, those synaptic connections that are important, are linked and strengthened, while those that are less important tend to fade away and be less important.
E o que parece ocorrer é que, dentro do cérebro, as conexões neurais que são importantes e as sinapses que são importantes, são ligadas e fortalecidas, enquanto as outras que são menos importantes tendem a desaparecer e ficar menos importantes.
