Mesencephalon - visual reflexes?

Not sure what you are asking... but.... part of the brain stem...the midbrain contains reflex centers for head, eye and body movements in response to visual and auditory stimuli. For example, reflexively turning the head to enable better vision or better hearing is activated by the midbrain


Does ASMR stand for autonomous sensory meridian response?

Yes, ASMR does stand for autonomous sensory meridian response. It is the effect of brain tingling triggered by certain visual and sound stimuli.


Which area is responsible for the head and eye movement in response to visual stimuli?

Frontal Eye Field


Neuron receives a series of stimuli whose effect is excitatory but subthreshold?

If a neuron receives a series of stimuli that have an excitatory effect but do not reach the threshold for action potential initiation, the neuron will not fire. This is because the individual stimuli do not generate a strong enough depolarization to reach the threshold. However, if enough subthreshold stimuli are received in a short period of time, they can summate and reach the threshold, generating an action potential.


Why might there be differences in reaction time between auditory and visual cues?

Simple reaction time studies show that RT to auditory stimuli is faster than visual stimuli. This is because the sensory process for light is more neurologically complex than for auditory cues. For light to be processed, it has a longer path to take in the brain, going all the way to the back of the brain to the occipital lobe and then back to the eyes. Auditory stimuli is processed in the ear then sent to the temporal lobe and back to the ear; a relatively shorter distance than the vision pathway. Reaction time to auditory cues in normal, healthy subjects is roughly 180 milliseconds for auditory cues and about 220 milliseconds.

Types of stimuli?

Stimuli are composed of two types: The Internal Stimuli and External Stimuli. Under internal stimuli are homeostatic imbalances and blood pressure. On the other hand, external stimuli are vision, touch and pain, taste, smell, equilibrium and sound.


What is visual cognition?

Visual cognition is a process of understanding and deciphering visual information. This is considered to be a mental process that begins with visual stimuli that once processed becomes a memory or information.


What are the two types of stimuli?

There are many types of stimuli, it all depends on what the body is reacting to. There may be stimuli from someone smacking you, which would result in a pain response. There can also be visual stimuli, like seeing old pictures, which results in a nostalgic feeling.

Caffeine increases the reaction time to visual and auditory stimuli


Are emotions a result from something outside of us?

Yes, emotions are developed due to external stimuli. Stimuli is any response that is received from outside.


What is an illusion?

A perception, as of visual stimuli, that represents what is perceived in a way different from the way it is in reality.


What types of cells are located in the brain's visual cortex?

The cells in the cerebral cortex are neurons and unmylinated axons, hence the term grey matter.
