axons of the ganglion cells leave the eyeball as the optic nerve. At the optic chiasma, the medial fibers of each eye cross over to the opposite side. The fiber tracts formed are called optic tracts. The optic tracts synapse with neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus, whose axons form the optic radiation, terminating in the visual cortex of the occipital lobe of the brain.

What is is the spleen do and where is it located?
Measuring about 5" in length, the spleen is the largest lymphatic organ. It is located on the left side of the body between the diaphragm and stomach. The spleen filters the blood, destroys old red blood cells and recycles their parts, provides a reservoir of blood and is active in immune responses.
What part of the brain controls consciousness and breathing?
The cerebrum is subdivided into portions, known as lobes. There are all together 5 lobes and all have different functions.Frontal Lobe - responsible for motor commands, motor planning, thought & personality, and olfaction.Parietal Lobe - sensation from body and sensory integration.Temporal Lobe - auditory integration.Occipital Lobe - visual processing.Insulla (Island of Reil) Lobe - taste, drive emotions, memory.
Are prokaryotic cells older than eukaryotic cells?
5 minutes
Is yellow 5 made from sperm cells?
No.
How many cells does a blastocyst have about day 5?
100
How many lobes does the brain have?
There are 4 lobes in each hemisphere of the human brain for a total of 8 lobes.
What is the main function of the Occipital lobe?
The occipital lobe processes visual information in the brain. The peristriate region of the occipital lobe discriminates between colors and processes movement. The visual cortex (outermost portion of the occipital lobe) is divided into 5 distinct layers (V1 to V5), and each layer discerns and processes a different type of visual characteristic, all integrated together to generate visual perception.
What happens when the occipital lobe damaged?
1) disturbance of auditory sensation and perception, 2) disturbance of selective attention of auditory and visual input, 3) disorders of visual perception, 4) impaired organization and categorization of verbal material, 5) disturbance of language comprehension, 6) impaired long-term memory, 7) altered personality and affective behavior, 8) altered sexual behavior.
What are the 5 main parts of the brain?
Frontal lobe---conscious thought; damage can result in mood changesParietal lobe---plays important roles in integrating sensory information from various senses, and in the manipulation of objects; portions of the parietal lobe are involved withvisuospatial processingOccipital lobe---sense of sight; lesions can produce hallucinationsleft and right Temporal lobe's---senses of smell and sound, as well as processing of complexInsula---motor control, emotion, homeostasis
What are the 5 magor bones of the human skull?
The 5 major bones in your head are, pariental (2), frontal, temporal mad occipital.
How many bronchial segment in the lung?
Each of the tertiary bronchi serves a specific bronchopulmonary segment. These segments each have their own artery. Thus, each bronchopulmonary segment is supplied by a bronchus, and an artery.There are 10 bronchopulmonary segments in the right lung (3 in superior lobe, 2 in middle lobe, 5 in inferior lobe) and 8-10 segments on the left (4-5 in upper lobe, 4-5 in lower lobe). Each segment is separated from the others by a layer of connective tissue.This means that each bronchopulmonary segment is a discrete anatomical and functional unit, and this separation means that a bronchopulmonary segment can be surgically removed without affecting the function of the other segments.
What are the 5 parts of the brain?
frontal, temporal, occipital, parietal, and then there's the cerebellum.
What are 2 types of seizures are associated with epilepsy?
