Graphing the response of a simple cortical cell results in the _____.
A) response compression curve
B) orientation tuning curve
C) response expansion curve
D) motion-directive sensitivity function

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Graphing the response of a simple cortical cell results in the orientation tuning curve, which shows the cell's preference for a specific orientation of a visual stimulus. The response compression curve and response expansion curve refer to the relationship between the strength of a stimulus and the resulting neural response. Motion-directive sensitivity function refers to the ability of a cell to respond selectively to movement in a specific direction.
