Vision Neuro

chapter 6

QuestionAnswer
sensory transduction physical stimuli changed to electrochemical signal
human vision 350 to 700 nm
cornea outer protective structure
iris colored opening/ control the pupil
pupil opening in the iris that allows a certain amnt of light
sclera whites/protective layer
vitreous humor gelatinous inside of eye/proteins
lens controls where image is projected onto the retina
retina neural tissue/back of eye/sensory receptors
optic nerve axonal propagations toward the brain
retina photoreceptors/fovea/optic disk
rods low light/ abundant/cylindrical/periphery
cones high acuity/ daytime/ color/toward fovea
fovea focus/most acute/ all cones
optic disk where the optic nerve exits the eye/ blind spot
amacrine cells connect bipolar and ganglion
bipolar cells receptor to ganglion/1 bipolar per photorec
horizontal cells receptors and bipolar/adjust light
ganglion cells axon potentials generated/optic nerve
photopigments opsin/retinal
light hits rhodopsin rod opsin and retinal
rod opsin changes color change in membrane potential
visual pathway retina-optic nerve-optic chiasm-lgn of thalamus-primary visual cortex
retino-geniculo-cortical pathway broken down in thalamus-staysin ipso
6 layers of primate LGN sep depending on ipsi/contra
layers 1 and 2 magnocellular-larger
layers 3-6 more dorsal/parvocellular
layers 1,4,6 input is contralateral
layers 2,3,5 input ipsilateral
center-surround cells create a field of cells
ganglion cells project 1st ap
hartline frogs/some cells stim more with (out) light
on-off cells only when switch from light to no light and vice versa
kuffle on middle with off periphery(structure)
schiller rod cells= all on cells
young's trichromatic red/green/blue/3 types of receptors
trichromatic coding 3 diff wavelengths
blue cone peak 419 nm
rod peak 496 nm
green cone 531 nm
red cone 559 nm
opponent-process coding blue on, yellow off etc
color vision deficits dichromatics
x-linked protanopia/deuteranopia
protanopia see in yellow and blue/red cones have green opsin
deuteranopia see all 3 colors but green filled w red opsin
tritanopia blue cones absent/defective
primary visual cortex striate cortex
pvc 6 layers w sublayers
projections from LGN enter layer 4
processes info from ganglion cells and LGN
modular organization in V1 blobs/inter-blobs/ocular dominance
blobs cytochrome oxidase/higher rates of met/color-opp process
inter-blobs orientation of objects/spatial/movement
ocular dominance receive info from same eye/ keep each eye separate
vc l 1 dendrites and axons of other layers
vc l 2/3 projection to temporal and parietal
4 receive input from LGN
5/6 project back to LGN
hubel and wiesel V1 line detectors
simple opponent process
complex movement of the line
ungerlerder and mishkin visual association cortex has 2 streams of processing
dorsal stream posterior parietal lobe/magno/where?
ventral stream inferior temporal lobe/m and p/ what?
visual association area analysis/higher order processing
magnocellular no color/high contrast/low spatial/quick
parvocellular color/low contrast/high spatial/slow
visual association cortex functions orientation/mvmt/spatial frequency/retinal disparity/color
dorsal stream location/spatial/terminates in posterior parietal cortex/balint's syndrome
optic ataxia diff reaching for an object
ocular apraxia visual scanning problems
simultanagnosia not more that 1 object at a time
ventral stream highest level of processing/form/3D
higher-order processing V4/ITC/PPC/V5
V4 color
ITC face cells/complex objects
PPC spatial perception
V5 movement/info from superior colliculus/
achromatopsia damage to medial occipital lobe/cant remember colors before damage
pulvinar region of thalamus that projects to V5/coordinates eye and hand mvmts
fusiform face area in fusiform gyrus/temporal lobe
visual agnosia deficits in perception w/o blindness
apperceptive cant perceive objects/
prosopagnosia can't recognize faces
associative visual agnosia cant name objects

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
