B.Temporal Retina
C. Fovea
D. Blindspot
E.None of the above

In the fovea all cones are likely to be found

A

D. Blindspot

17
Q

Olfactory System:

Flavor= Smelling + ——–+ Seeing + ——-

Key: All your senses contribute to flavor it needs every sensory input.

A

Touching ,Hearing

18
Q

Ascending Pathway:

Which pathway deals with face and touch of head or body?

A

Trigeminal Touch Pathway:

19
Q

On / Off: Starts at the Photoreceptors, Bi-polar cells, Ganglion cell

In light, an on cell will blank?

A

depolarize

20
Q

On / Off: Starts at the Photoreceptors, Bi-polar cells, Ganglion cell

In light, an off cell will blank?

A

hyperpolarize

21
Q

True or False: Does a photoreceptor fire an action potential?

A

False

22
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

In the center, what color will cause maximum depolariztion?

A

Red

23
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

What will be the outcome if we have a red center and a surround at its basal state?

A

Center is red so that will cause maximum depolariztion and the surround is at its basal state so there will be least hyperpolariztion

24
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

In surround, red will cause a blank hyperpolarization?

A

Medium

25
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

A medium depolarization in the center comes from what color?

A

Green

26
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

What does it mean where there’s a basal state in the center?

A

A basal state will have the least amount of depolarization at the center

27
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

In the surround, what will green do to the ganglion cell?

A

Green in the surround will cause maximum hyperpolarization

28
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

In the surround, the least hyperpolarization comes from what?

A

The basal state in the surround will cause least hyperpolarization

29
Q

Center/ Surround in Retinal Processing :

At the basal state will there be any light?

Key: Make sure you hit two points

A
  1. No
  2. Why? because this is the initial state meaning no light
