Which evidence best supports the idea that the adult visual cortex retains mechanisms for plasticity after the critical period? Select one: a. The majority of cortical cells in a normal adult cat are activated to some degree by stimulation in both eyes. b. Monocular deprivation in an adult cat alters the distribution of cortical neurons activated by stimulation of both eyes. c.
