The optic nerves to the optic chiasm. Past the chiasm, it's called the optic tract.

The anterior visual pathway refers to the pathway that visual information takes from the eyes to the visual cortex in the brain. It includes the optic nerves, optic chiasm, optic tracts, and lateral geniculate nucleus. This pathway is responsible for transmitting visual signals from the retina to the brain for processing and interpretation.

What is the circulatory pathway from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary?
portal system
What is the first way station in the visual pathway from the eye?
lateral geniculate body of the thalamus
How is the visual pathway from the eyes different from the ears or hands?
each eye is not primarily connected to one hemisphere only instead, each visual half field is projected to the opposite hemisphere so, if an image is seen in the right visual field it would be seen in the left hemisphere and if an image is seen in the left visual field it would be seen in the right hemisphere
Functions of the corpus callosum?
The function of the corpus callosum (as well as the anterior commissure) is to allow each hemisphere of the brain to communicate with the other hemisphere.
What is the order of the neural pathway?
retina optic nerve optic chiasma optic tract lateral geniculate nucleus optic radiations primary visual cortex
What is the circulatory pathway from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary?
portal system
What tract conveys nerve impulses for crude touch and pressure?
spinothalamic, it is a somatosensory pathway
What it the pathway of blood from heart to anterior cerebral artery?
L ventricleAscending aortaAortic ArchBrachiocephalic trunkR Common Carotid arteryR Internal Carotid arteryR anterior cerebral artery
What is the visual pathway to the hands?
There is no visual pathway to (or from) the hands. This idea says objects near the hands are immediate candidates for action. It doesn't mention in any way that there is a visual pathway from the hands to the eyes.Just means that you are more likely to use something nearby your hands (in sight) than some that are not (in sight).This has "led us to hypothesize that vision near the hands would be biased toward the action-oriented magnocellular visual pathway that supports processing with high temporal resolution but low spatial resolution". ~From a published scientific article.
What has the author Fiona J Rowe written?

What is the first way station in the visual pathway from the eye?
lateral geniculate body of the thalamus
What is the correct pathway for transmission of visual information?
photoreceptor to the bipolar cell to the bipolar cell t
What is the function of tectospinal tract?
To relay visual reflexes to the anterior horn cells of spinal cord.
How is the visual pathway from the eyes different from the ears or hands?

What are the neural elements of the visual pathway beginning with the retina and ending with the optic cortex?
yes there are the neural elemnts< no dip stupid what are they
What is the pathway for crude pain?
The lateral spinothalamic tract (it carries sensation for temperature and pain) whereas the anterior spinothalamic tract carries sensation for light touch and pressure.
