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.
Answer:
The policy for controlling environmental mercury pollution should address ways to prevent and control this pollution. Policy:
- Ban the incineration of waste
- Require that coal-burning companies remove mercury from the coal
- Allocate funds towards research and development for renewable energy resources in the hopes of switching away from coal.
- Require that products containing mercury be labeled as such.
- Set up programs that will recycle batteries and mercury-filled products.
- Set up education programs that will help inform people about mercury pollution.
This policy works by addressing the ways to prevent and control mercury pollution.
Three problems that could result from implementing this policy:
- Backlash from coal-burning companies.
- It could take a while before we completely shift away from using coal.
- Some of the programs that can be set up in this policy can be too expensive to set up and maintain.
A, the others are unrealistic speeds.
DNA is unzipped by helicase at the origin of replication. There are several origins of replications in eukaryotic DNA replication, while only one in prokaryotic replication.
