Detailed explanation-1: -The primary visual cortex, also known as V1 or Brodmann area 17, surrounds the calcarine sulcus on the occipital lobe’s medial aspect. It receives the visual information from the retina via the thalamus.
Detailed explanation-2: -The primary visual cortical receiving area is in the occipital lobe.
Detailed explanation-3: -Processing hearing information. This function is processed by an area of your temporal lobe called the auditory cortex.
Detailed explanation-4: -The occipital lobes sit at the back of the head and are responsible for visual perception, including colour, form and motion.
Detailed explanation-5: -The occipital lobe is the major visual processing centre in the brain. The primary visual cortex, also known as V1, receives visual information from the eyes.
