Q

Cytochrome oxidase staining of extrastriate cortex (X) reveals (homogenous/heterogenous) layers.

A

X = V2

Hetergenous

24
Q

While some processing occurs in extrastriate cortex (X), it’s largely considered a relay area.

A

X = V2

25
Q

List projections of “what”, aka (X), stream.

A

X = ventral;

  1. V1
  2. V2
  3. V4
26
Q

List projections of “where”, aka (X), stream.

A

X = dorsal;

  1. V1
  2. V2
  3. MT
27
Q

Damage to (X) cortex and (Y) stream causes visuospatial neglect to (ipsilateral/bilateral/contralateral) visual space.

A 
X = parietal;
Y = dorsal (where)

Contralateral

28
Q

Downstream from (X) extrastriate cortex is the (Y) cortex. It has cells with complex visual stimulus requirements for activation (i.e. faces).

X = V4;
Y = Infratemporal
29
Q

Infratemporal cortex has (small/medium/large) receptive fields.

A

Huge

30

In humans, damage to part of (X) produces prosopagnosia.

A

X = fusiform gyrus

32
