Blindsight is the condition in which someone with damage in the primary visual cortex reports that they cannot see an object, but can usually guess what that object is. This means that some visual representation must reach the frontal speech area. What non-thalamic pathway might do that?
Question 8 options:
A)
The pathway through the suprachiasmatic nucleus
B)
The dorsal visual pathway
C)
The pathway through the superior colliculus
D)
The magnocelluar or M pathway
The optic nerves form synapses in the ____ nucleus of the thalamus, which relays the information to the primary visual cortex in the ___ lobes.
A) medial geniculate; parietal
B) medial geniculate; occipital
C) lateral geniculate; occipital
D) lateral geniculate; parietal
Sensory impulses transmitted over the facial, glossopharyngeal, and vagus nerves are involved in the special sense of (a) taste, (b) vision, (c) equilibrium, (d) smell.
