VISION SENSORY AND PERCEPTUAL PROCESSING

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following sequence of structures correctly describes part of the visual processing system?
A
lens ____ pupil ____ retina ____ cornea
B
cornea ____ retina ____ occipital lobe ____ optic nerve
C
lens ____ retina ____ optic nerve ____ occipital lobe
D
cornea ____ pupil ____ retina ____ iris
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Visual processing and, ultimately, visual fields begin in the retina. Light enters the eye; passes through the cornea, anterior chamber, lens, and vitreous; and finally reaches the photoreceptor cells of the retina. Light activates these photoreceptors, which modulate the activity of bipolar cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Three stages of visual processing determine how internal noise appears to an external observer: light adaptation, contrast gain control and a postsensory/decision stage.

Detailed explanation-3: -So the correct option is ‘Photosensorycells→Bipolarneurons→Ganglioniccells→Sensorynerves’.
