C. have no conscious perception of visual stimuli but are still able to discriminate better than would be predicted by chance alone. D. have no conscious perception of a particular area of the visual field.

Answer 1

Answer:

Have no conscious perception of visual stimuli but are still able to discriminate better than would be predicted by chance alone.

Explanation:

Blindsight is a phenomenon in which individuals with damage in the primary visual cortex of the brain can tell where an object is although they insist that they cannot see it.

Individuals with blindsight have been tested for their potency to distinguish color differences, brightness changes. They also have the ability to discriminate between various shapes, as well as tracking movement.

People with blindsight have the conscious experience of blindness, often feeling like they are guessing not withstanding their high level of accuracy.
