How does paragraph 7 explain the idea that studying music can develop the brain?a musical instrument engages muscular movement, requires coordination, and employs various senses. this intricate process of making music creates motion and emotional response. according to one scientist’s studies, intense musical training increases not only the volume of the brain, but also improves the connections between the hemispheres of the brain. it highlights how the number and the complexity of the tasks that one must master to play an instrument spurs brain growth. it identifies the parts of the brain that are affected by studying music. it offers quotes from a leading scientific study. it describes a program that uses music to people with brain injuries or brain diseases such as alzheimer's.

Option 1 “It highlights how the number and the complexity of the tasks that one must master to play an instrument spurs brain growth.” is the statement that best explains the idea that studying music can help develop the brain. In this paragraph, the focus is on how performing several tasks at the same time when playing an instrument help you develop certain skills such as coordination, muscular movement and senses awareness. By developing several skills both parts of the brain, right and left, are being exercised.  

Option 2 is not correct as it does not identify which part of the brain is affected. Instead, it makes emphasis on how both parts are interconnected when studying music.

Option 3 is incorrect since the paragraph mentions a scientific source to back up the main idea, so it is mentioned as an example.

Option 4 is also incorrect as no direct relation is made in the paragraph between the effects of studying music and health improvement.

“It highlights how the number and the complexity of the tasks that one must master to play an instrument spurs brain growth.”
