Mara Dorsey · Answer 1

c. migration

Explanation:

Migration of neurons, also referred to as neuronal migration, is a complex and fundamental process that involves the movement of young neurons from their sites of origin in the brain by axon guidance, to their final destination where they finally join specific neuronal circuit in the central nervous system where they reside for life, as they become differentiated. Migration of neurons is achieved through either radial migration or tangential migration.
