Best Answer

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.
