It is the brains ability to shift functions from damaged areas of the brain to undamaged. For example: if the auditory part of your brain was damaged, another part of the brain may take on that task.

Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections to compensate for injury or disease. This can lead to one brain area taking over functions of another damaged area, known as brain plasticity or cortical remapping. The degree of plasticity varies among individuals and depends on factors like age, type of injury, and rehabilitation.
Neuroplasticity or brain plasticity refers to the way that changes in neural pathways and synapses allow one part of the brain to "take over" damaged areas of the brain. It also refers to the brain's general ability to change as we age for both better and worse.
Brain plasticity is at its peak in infancy. An infant's brain is a brain that is still capable of adjustment. The same cannot be said of an adult brain.
Brain plasticity is also known as neuroplasticity. It is the ability of the brain to modify itself by forming neural connections.
Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new connections between neurons. Factors that influence plasticity include age (plasticity decreases with age), environmental enrichment (such as learning new skills or engaging in stimulating activities), physical exercise, nutrition, and certain experiences or stimuli. Additionally, genetic variations can also play a role in determining an individual's level of brain plasticity.

Plasticity.
The benefits of brain plasticity are most clearly demonstrated in children who have had a cerebral hemisphere surgically removed.
Brain plasticity is the ability for an area of the brain (specifically in the cerebral cortex) to compensate for another area of the brain when there is brain damage. The four lobes (occipital, temporal, frontal, and parietal) are not pre-wired to commit itself to any specific function, but it starts to "commit" to certain functions after birth.
