Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Object agnosia is the inability to recognize objects even when their basic sensory functions, such as vision or touch, are intact. This includes the inability to determine an object's function simply by examining it visually. The patient's accurate color and shape perception suggest that their basic sensory functions are intact, ruling out options A and B. Anosognosia involves a lack of awareness or denial of a physical or mental condition, and is not related to object recognition.
