Plasticity means the adaptability of an organism to changes in its environment or differences between its various habitats.

It applies to development by how it adapts and survives in new places and changes

Developmental plasticity is a general term referring to changes in neural connections during development as a result of environmental interactions as well as neural changes induced by learning.
