Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two major visual pathways are the dorsal pathway (processing object location) and the ventral pathway (processing object identity). Option A captures this distinction accurately. Option B is not entirely accurate as both pathways process both chromatic and non-chromatic aspects of the scene. Option C is a bit vague and does not fully capture the distinction between the two pathways, as both pathways process simple and complex object features to some degree. Option D does not accurately represent the two visual pathways as both pathways can process information about stationary and moving objects.
