Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Simple cells in the visual cortex are known to respond best to line or edge stimuli with a particular orientation at a specific location on the retina. Complex cells and hypercomplex cells also have orientation preferences but are less specific about the location on the retina. Ganglion cells are found in the retina and send visual information to the brain via the optic nerve.
