Which of the following can occur as a result of damage to a small area of the visual cortex? • I. the patient can lose the ability to track movement • II. The patient can lose the ability to reintegrate details of an object into a whole object (ie seeing stars and stripes, but not the flag) • III. The patient can lose the ability to recognize faces • IV. The patient can lose the ability to see in one particular spot (ie develop a blind spot • V. the patient can develop the ability to integrate unrelated objects into a larger whole (ie flag, soldier, gun = war) • A.

The wavelength of light determines • A. intensity • B. hue • C. brightness • D. form • E. features
Color vision involves • A. light hitting the cones of the eyes and either triggering or inhibiting specific neurons • B. light hitting rods and being reflected onto the brain • C. light hitting the cornea and traveling to the optic nerve • D. light hitting the blind spot and being interpreted by the brain • E. light hitting the lens and reflecting onto the cornea
