The K pathway is responsible for processing information related to motion and is less sensitive to light, meaning it requires brighter stimuli to activate compared to the M pathway, which is responsible for processing information related to brightness. Additionally, the K pathway has lower acuity than the P pathway, which is responsible for processing information related to form and detail perception. Therefore, both statements A and B are true.
