Select the correct sequence for processing of information in the primary visual pathway.
A) retina - dorsal lateral geniculate (DLG) - striate cortex
B) retina - striate cortex - extrastriate cortex - inferior temporal cortex
C) retina - DLG - inferior temporal cortex - amygdala
D) DLG - retina - striate cortex - primary visual cortex
E) DLG- frontal cortex - amygdala - extrastriate cortex

Question

Select the correct sequence for processing of information in the primary visual pathway.
A) retina - > dorsal lateral geniculate (DLG) -> striate cortex
B) retina -> striate cortex -> extrastriate cortex -> inferior temporal cortex
C) retina -> DLG -> inferior temporal cortex -> amygdala
D) DLG -> retina -> striate cortex -> primary visual cortex
E) DLG-> frontal cortex -> amygdala -> extrastriate cortex

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The primary visual pathway starts with the retina, where visual information is first processed, followed by transmission to the dorsal lateral geniculate (DLG) nucleus in the thalamus. The DLG then sends the visual signals to the primary visual cortex or the striate cortex, which is located in the occipital lobe. Therefore, the correct sequence for processing of information in the primary visual pathway is retina->DLG->striate cortex, which is option A.
