Across
  1. 5. Layer of the retina that contains photoreceptors
  2. 9. Retinal Ganglion cells that send signals to magnocellular layers
  3. 10. Visual pathway that runs from V1 to V2 into V4 and then to the inferotemporal cortex
  4. 11. Receives signals from photoreceptors
  5. 12. sensitive to low levels of light. Helps with night vision
  6. 14. Layers of lateral geniculate nucleus which the nucleus has small cell bodies
  7. 16. Retinal ganglion cells that send signals to the parvocellular layers
  8. 18. Helps to control eye movements; located near the top of brain stem
  9. 20. Bottom of the temporal lobe
  10. 22. Part of the occipital lobe where signals flow from the lateral geniculate nucleus
  11. 23. Contains synapses among bipolar,retinal, and amacrine ganglion cells
  12. 24. Crossing of the optic nerves
  13. 25. This layer contains synapse among photoreceptors, horizontal cells and bipolar cells
  14. 27. Visual pathway that runs from V1 to V2 into MT then to the parietal cortex; relates to an object's location or motion
  15. 28. Layers of lateral geniculate nucleus which the nucleus has small cell bodies
  16. 29. Provides detailed information about the light they transduce; color
Down
  1. 1. Near the center of the brain; perceives motion and space
  2. 2. Receives signals from and sends signals to photoreceptors
  3. 3. Layers of cells attached to the choroid
  4. 4. This layer contains horizontal, amacrine, and bipolar cells
  5. 6. Sends action potentials to the brain through the optic nerve
  6. 7. Layers of lateral geniculate nucleus which the nucleus have large cell bodies
  7. 8. This layer has retinal ganglion cells
  8. 10. Transmits the separate types of information that define two large scale pathways
  9. 13. Formed by bundling together of axons from retinal ganglion cells
  10. 15. Located in the occipital lobe; consists of neurons that respond selectively to color/curvature
  11. 17. Continuation of optic nerve past the optic chiasm
  12. 19. Retinal Ganglion cells that send signals to the koniocellular layers
  13. 21. Middle temporal lobe. Consists of neurons that selectively respond to speed of motion/direction
  14. 26. Recieves signals from and sends to bipolar and amacrine cells
