If our visual perception depends only on the feature detectors in the visual cortex, what would we see?

Biology

Anika [276]3 years ago
3 0

The sophistication of the visual cortex can be simplified through understanding that the neurons found in this region are distinguished by the kind of stimulus that each detects.

There are three major groups of feature detectors in visual cortex. These includes simple cells, complex cells and hypercomplex cells. The simple cells are the most specific since it responds to the geometric characteristics of the stimulus such as the lines of particular width, orientation, angle and position within the visual field. The complex cells are similar to simple cells. What differentiates one from the other is that they respond to the proper stimulus in any position within the receptive visual field. In addition, some of the complex cells respond to particular lines or edges moving in a specific direction opposite the receptive field. Lastly, the hypercomplex cells are responsive to the specific length of the lines. It is believed that the information from all feature detectors conjoin in to result in the visual stimulation perception.

What problems still exist in using natural regeneration?
qwelly [4]
Natural regeneration of forests and woodlands is the process by which new trees grow from seeds that have fallen and germinate where they have fallen.  The biggest problem with natural regeneration is that is unpredictable.  As a result, it cannot be used for commercial farming. For most of the last two or three hundred years, forests and woodlands have restocked by using transplants grown in nurseries. The young trees are planted in equidistant rows. This allows each tree the best possible change of optimal growth.

25. A student measures the distance from a bridge
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(4) As time increased, distance remained

the same

Explanation:

The graph shows that the student measures equal distance everyday from the bridge to the rock for 7 days.

Everyday has an equal distance measured by the student all through the week.

Let's say the point on the vertical axis which represents distance measured is about 1.5 meters. It means that, for day 1, he measures 1.5 meters, day 2, he measured 1.5 meters, by day 3 another 1.5 meters. Same he does for 7 days. For the first 3 days, he would have measured 1.5 m × 3 = 4.5 meters.

This means that, as time (days) increased, distance measured each day remains the same.

By growing on the trunk or branch of a tree, a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. The tree is not
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

a. commensalism is the correct answer.

Explanation:

By growing on the trunk or branch of a tree, a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. The tree is not harmed by the lichen but does not benefit either. The relationship between the lichen and the tree is commensalism.

Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms where one organism gets benefits from other organisms without causing any harm or any damage from the relation as it one side symbiotic relation.

In this, we can see lichen is getting benefits from the tree.

for example, lichen is getting following benefits from the tree such as ( a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.) and they are causing any harm to tree neither any benefits so this is a one-side symbiotic relation and thus the relationship is an example of commensalism.

A large forest fire burns in Canada, dropping black carbon on Greenland. Which of the following is true
klemol [59]

In the case of the large forest fire burns in Canada, the option that is known to be true is option B: . The Greenland glaciers will melt faster.

<h3>How do wildfires affect glaciers?</h3>

A new study has shown that the exposure of glaciers  to any kinds of wildfire smoke can lead to the glaciers melting faster than normal.

Note that this often affects mountain runoff that gives  the main freshwater resources for all of life downstream.

Hence, In the case of the large forest fire burns in Canada, the option that is known to be true is option B: . The Greenland glaciers will melt faster.

A large forest fire burns in Canada, dropping black carbon on Greenland. Which of the following is true?
