Association Visual Cortex - rods/cones

Question 1

What is transmitted to the visual association areas where it is integrated into perception?

Answer 1

Fragmented component processing of primary visual cortex and V2

Question 2

What are the two visual pathways after primary visual cortex?

Answer 2

Dorsal-parietal-perception of location and movement

Ventral-temporal-perception of objects and color

Question 3

Parvocellular

Answer 3

Receives info about color (cones) and has high resolution good for detecting fine details

Question 4

Koinocellular

Answer 4

receives information about color (cones)

Question 5

Magnocellular

Answer 5

(rods) detect finer (i.e., more subtle) contrasts between light and dark and are sensitive to movement

Question 6

Dorsal stream

Answer 6

receives input mostly from magnocellular

Question 7

Ventral stream

Answer 7

receives equal from magno and parvo; receives input from koino as well

Question 8

Association cortex surrounds the … and contains one or more…

Answer 8

Association cortex surrounds the primary visual cortex and contains one or more independent maps of the visual field
