Jenna is watching a red car pass through her visual field. Which of the following would accurately describe the visual processing occurring in Jenna's brain?
A)
A visual stimulus of a tree that was processed in an area of the retina close to the car would also be processed in a nearby area of the primary visual cortex.
B)
Most of the retinal cells carrying the visual stimulus will synapse in the medial reticulate nucleus in the thalamus before being sent to the primary visual cortex.
C)
The complex processing of a moving visual stimulus would make it more likely that the receptive field of a V1 cell would be comprised of only a few lateral geniculate nuclei.
D)
When looking at the car with her left eye, visual information about the car would only travel to the right side of her brain.
