It tells you that a large amount of their brain processing is oriented towards visual cues/stimuli. Because they can view a much larger degree of range laterally than can humans and need to be able to process movement to detect predators and prey, they need more processing power for interpreting visual signals.

What are the major divisions of a frog's brain?
There are three main divisions of the frogs brain. The fore-brain contains olfactory lobes, a pair of cerebral hemispheres, and unpaired diencephalon. The mid-brain of the frog contains of a pair of optic lobes. The hind-brain of the frog contains cerebellum and medulla oblongata.
How is the adaptation of the olfactory lobes and the optic lobes an advantage for the frogs lifestyle?
The olfactory lobes are used by frogs as homing tools to find breeding grounds. The optic lobes allow them an almost 360 degree vision for locating prey.
The large nerve that connects the eye to the brain is called the optic nerve?
yes
What is the optic intersection in the brain?
The optic chiasm is where the two optic nerves cross in the brain.
Where is hypothalamus?
The hypothalamus is inferior to the thalamus. It is posterior(in back) of the optic chiasm beside the temporal lobes and optic tracts.
What system interprets information from sensory units?
olfactory and optic lobes
What part of brain connects brain and eyes?
Optic nerve. Well, it connects the retina to the brain. The muscles of the eye also connect to the brain, but not through the optic nerve.
What part of your brain receives messages from your eyes?
Since your eyes see it upside-down (believe it or not), along the tracks the image is turned rightside-up and then then that is what you see....
What is optic tract?
