<unk> , also referred to as<unk>  reorganization, is the process by which an existing<unk>  map is affected by a stimulus resulting in the creating of a 'new'<unk>  map. Every part of the body is connected to a corresponding area in the brain which creates a<unk>  map. When something happens to disrupt the<unk>  maps such as an amputation or a change in neuronal characteristics, the map is no longer relevant. The part of the brain that is in charge of the amputated limb or neuronal change will be dominated by adjacent<unk>  regions that are still receiving input, thus creating a remapped area.<unk>  can occur in the sensory or motor system. The mechanism for each system may be quite different.<unk>  in the somatosensory system happens when there has been a decrease in sensory input to the brain due to deafferentation or amputation, as well as a sensory input increase to an area of the brain. Motor system<unk>  receives more limited feedback that can be difficult to interpret.<unk>  map representation of a dog by David Ferrier
