Study Notes
Visual Cortex Specialization
- The region of the visual cortex specialized with specific neurons responding to orientation, movement, and color is not specified in the text.
Visual Association Cortex
- The dorsal stream of the visual association cortex guides navigation and skilled movements directed toward objects.
Visual Cortex Hierarchy
- Fibers from the striate cortex terminate in area V1 of the visual cortex.
- Neurons in the thick stripes of area V2 ascend into area V3 in the visual processing hierarchy.
Visual Association Cortex Streams
- The ventral stream of the visual association cortex provides information about object recognition and identification.
