6. What kind of pathway is the dorsal?

  • Where
  • What
  • Why
  • How

7. What is the observer doing if there is flow in the ambient optic array?

  • Observer is going in the opposite direction of the pole
  • Observer is changing direction
  • Observer is in motion
  • Observer is approaching the pole

8. What fluid is the anterior chamber filled with?

  • Aqueous humor
  • Vitreous humor
  • Retinal humor

9. How does perception work?

  • Pays attention to stimuli in environment
  • Detects information from the senses
  • Makes sense of the raw sensory input
  • Identifies visual illusions in field of vision

10. What is the function of axons?

  • Carry electrical signals from the eye to the visual cortex
  • Detects visual stimuli in the environment
  • Change the electrical activity of cells
  • Processes visual information

11. What kind of pathway is the ventral?

  • What
  • Where
  • Why
  • How

12. What vision are cones used for?

  • Movement detection
  • Depth
  • Colour
  • Dim light

13. What is the optic flow?

  • The directly perceivable use of things without relying on prior knowledge
  • Things that remain stable in the environment
  • Changes in the light hitting the eye
  • When the light converges to a point in space occupied by the observer

14. What is Gibson's (1979) theory of direct perception based on?

  • Top down processing and perception for action
  • Bottom up processing and perception for action
  • Bottom up processing and perception for recognition
  • Top down processing and perception for recognition

15. What is the observer doing if there is outflow of the optic array from the pole?

  • Observer is approaching the pole
  • Observer is in motion
  • Observer is changing direction
  • Observer is going in the opposite direction of the pole

16. What forms the optic nerve?
