B)Optic tract,ganglion cells,optic radiations,thalamus,optic chiasma,optic nerve,temporal lobe
C)Ganglion cells,optic nerve,optic chiasma,optic tract,thalamus,optic radiations,occipital lobe
D)Optic nerve,optic tract,optic chiasma,optic radiations,thalamus,ganglion cells,parietal lobe

The correct pathway from the retina to the visual cortex is via the ganglion cells, optic nerve, optic chiasma, optic tract, thalamus, and optic radiations ultimately leading to the occipital lobe. Option C correctly follows this pathway. Option A incorrectly places the ganglion cells after the optic chiasma, while option B incorrectly places the optic nerve after the optic tract. Option D incorrectly places the ganglion cells after the thalamus and includes the parietal lobe, which is not directly involved in processing visual information.
