Inferior colliculus size differences in individuals whom are blind?
Depending of the condition of the blindness (blindness happening in adulthood or childhood), the inferior colliculus may be slightly larger (more developed) than others because it is the auditory reflex center.
What happens to animals when their inferior colliculus is stimulated whether through electrodes or through neurotransmitters?
Animals tend to get excited when their inferior colliculus is stimulated. In many ways, it is like they have received a shot of b12 or adrenaline. While some may perform frenzy like acts, most animals will still maintain control as to not attract potential predators.

Which part of the midbrain is responsible for hearing and visual reflexes?
Cerebrum That is a pretty broad area, true that the occipital lobe of the cerebrum is our vision center and the temporarl lobe houses our auditory center, neither of these necessarily controls our reflexes of these senses. I believe the answer that they were looking for is the corpora quadrigemina, part of the midbrain that contains the superior colliculi and the inferioror colliculi, which help us react to/analyze visual and auditory sensations that we encounter
