The primary area in the brain responsible for detecting visual movement is the middle temporal area (MT) or V5. This area receives input from the primary visual cortex and is crucial for perceiving motion, speed, and direction of moving objects.
medulla oblogata
The retina is the part of the eyes that detects light. It contains cells called photoreceptors (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals, which are then sent to the brain for processing.
Visual cortex
In some respects, this question has two answers.The retina is entirely nervous tissue, and as such is considered an extension of the brain (albiet a highly specialised extension). The retina lines the inside of the eye, and detects and responds to light.However, the other, more traditional answer is that the Visual Cortex, at the posterior (back) of the brain is responsible for making sense of the signals from the retina.
The upper part of the brain that receives sensations and controls movement is called the cerebral cortex.
The retina detects light and the optical nerve sends the signal to the brain.
The visual cortex processes visual information in the brain. This part is present in occipital lobe.
medulla oblogata
The primary part of the brain responsible for sight is the occipital lobe, located at the back of the brain. Within this lobe, the primary visual cortex processes visual information received from the eyes. Additional areas, such as the parietal and temporal lobes, also play a role in interpreting and integrating visual stimuli, contributing to our understanding of depth, movement, and object recognition.
The retina is the part of the eye that detects and processes light waves, converting them into electrical signals that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve for visual perception. The retina contains specialized cells called photoreceptors, such as rods and cones, that are responsible for capturing light and initiating the visual process.
Sense organs work together by receiving external stimuli and transmitting signals to the brain for processing. For example, the eye detects light signals and sends them to the brain to interpret as visual information. The brain then integrates this visual information with input from other sense organs like the ears and skin to create a comprehensive perception of the environment.
