In the context of shape representation in V4, individual neurons in area V4 respond MOST strongly to edges that can be more complex than those in V1 when:
A) the edges are straight or curved.
B) the contour with the preferred orientation is at any angular position.
C) an edge with its preferred curvature is different across a range of locations of the edge within the retinal image.
D) an edge with its preferred orientation is different across a range of locations of the edge within the retinal image.
