What else can I help you with?
Do sensory pathways travel to or from the brain?
Sensory pathways travel from the body to the brain. They carry information from sensory receptors in the body to the brain where the information is processed and interpreted.
What part of the brain coordinates visual and auditory reflexes?
The midbrain, specifically the superior colliculus, plays a role in coordinating visual and auditory reflexes. It receives inputs from both visual and auditory pathways and helps integrate these sensory inputs to generate appropriate reflex responses.
The brain interprets signals from the eye as light even if the eye is actually being stimulated by something else such as pressure This best describes?
This best describes how the brain can sometimes misinterpret signals from the eyes as light when they are actually being stimulated by pressure or other factors. This phenomenon is known as visual hallucinations or phosphenes, and can occur due to disturbances in the visual processing pathways in the brain.
True or false Most of the ascending and descending pathways to and from the brain cross over from one sid of the body to the other?
True. Most ascending pathways carry sensory information to the brain, and most descending pathways carry motor commands from the brain to the body, crossing over from one side of the body to the other at some point. This crossover is known as decussation.
What region contain the primary visual cortex?
The visual cortex is found in the occipital lobe.
The optic radiations project to the?
The optic radiations project to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe of the brain. They carry visual information from the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus to the primary visual cortex. This pathway is important for processing and interpreting visual stimuli.
What has the author A D Milner written?
A. D. Milner has written: 'The Neuropsychology of Consciousness (Foundations of Neuropsychology)' 'The visual brain in action' -- subject(s): Visual cortex, Evolution, Visual pathways
Is vision contra-laterally controlled by the brain?
Yes, vision is contralaterally controlled by the brain. The left side of the brain processes information from the right visual field, while the right side of the brain processes information from the left visual field. This is due to the way that the optic nerves from each eye cross over at the optic chiasm.
Do sensory pathways travel to or from the brain?
Sensory pathways travel from the body to the brain. They carry information from sensory receptors in the body to the brain where the information is processed and interpreted.
What pathways form communication networks in the brain?
Neural pathways
What part of the brain coordinates visual and auditory reflexes?
The midbrain, specifically the superior colliculus, plays a role in coordinating visual and auditory reflexes. It receives inputs from both visual and auditory pathways and helps integrate these sensory inputs to generate appropriate reflex responses.
What part of the brain will be affected if there is something wrong with your vision?
The OPTIC NERVE, OCCIPITAL LOBE, and VISUAL CORTEX will be affected if there is something wrong with your vision. But there maybe underline issues that could cause problems with your vision as well.

What part of the brain processes visual information?
The visual cortex processes visual information in the brain. This part is present in occipital lobe.
What are sensory pathways that are located in the spinal cord or brain referred to?
Nerves
What are the visual centers of the brain called?
One visual centre of the brain I know of is called the Visiospatial Sketchpad. This is where the brain is responsible for the temporary storage of visual and spatial information before being stored in your long term memory.
What must be responsible for creating a perception at the blind spot?
Although there is no sensation at the blindspot (where the optic nerve connects to the eye) our brains fill in the gap once the information is transduced from the eye to the visual pathways in the temporal and occipital lobes of the brain
