Explain in your own words why simple cells in V1 give larger responses when the bars are parallel to the axis of elongation than
abruzzese [7]

Answer: This is as a result of it covering more on the center part of the cell unlike when it is perpendicular.

Explanation: This is as a result of it covering more on the center part of the cell unlike when it is perpendicular. Cells in the primary visual cortex tends to responds to a particular direction of light. There are distinct inhibitory and excitatory regions and when the bar of light is moved over the cell you hear the firing rate (noise) which depends on the direction the light moves in. When the bar of light is set at an angle or perpendicular, the inhibitory receptive field is illuminated which slows the firing rate. when the bar of light is perpendicular, it leads to both the inhibitory and excitatory regions being illuminated which can sometimes result in their firing potentials canceling out each other, which can lead to no response in firing.

Which of the following describes how the winter season affects organisms in the tundra biome?
alukav5142 [94]

The correct answer is D. Animals not adapted to cold migrate to warmer regions, because suppose that the cold temperatures kill most of the plants, so if they can die why they select that place to live? The option B is not logical because this require long time to evolve this characteristic and the option C has more logic but it still not enough, because if the temperatures are colder more animals can die. I hope this help.
