Schematic developmental trajectories for mean volumes of brain tissues in the normative population across age (adapted from Figs. 2–3 of (Courchesne et al., 2000) and Figs. 2–3 of (Knickmeyer et al., 2008)). Children’s brains are significantly different from the adult brain as the organization and properties of brain structures change with age.
