"But many of the neurons in the brains of the sedentary rats had sprouted far more new tentacle-like arms known as branches."

"Branches connect healthy neurons into the nervous system. But these neurons now had more branches than normal neurons would have, making them more sensitive to stimuli and apt to zap scattershot messages into the nervous system."

Yes, but the rats were not watching television.
