Cogs 17 Midterm 2 Stuck Set

Nucleus in Thalamus that processes most visual information from eye

Frequency gradients (high vs. low) that V1 cells in Parvocellular Pathway are most sensitive to

Frequency gradients (high vs. low) in Magnocellular Pathway are most sensitive to

End of Parvocellular Pathway, includes cells that prefer, hand, face, other complex stimulation

Cortex with direction-sensitive cells, responds best to stimulus moving across retina

Cortex with optic-flow detectors that respond best to contraction/expansion of whole scene

In V2 or MT, cells that respond to degrees of difference between location of an image on to retina

Cells to which auditory receptors communicate, whose axons exit to brain

Relative levels of activity across differentially-resonating Basilar Membrane code frequency

Ganglions involved in the Volley Principle can all only fire at the same phase (e.g.) peak of input wave

Differences used for localization, caused by "head shadow" attenuating high frequencies

Differences used for localization, comparing peak and trough of lower frequencies

Differences used for localization, per race of left vs. right onset signals to Superior Olive

Receptors Cells that show divergent connectivity, for detail frequency discrimination

Receptor Cells that show convergent connectivity, for loudness discrimination

(Audition) Next synapse in Medulla after 8th Cranial Nerve, beginning of separate information pathways, Monaural site

Cell in Cochlear Nucleus that transforms incoming signal into transient burst

Cell in Cochlear Nucleus that transforms incoming signal into one graded, increasing amplitude

Auditory site in Medulla, responsible for Orienting Reflex

Auditory site in Midbrain, where information is integrated with visual at nearby site

Auditory site in Thalamus, site of A1

Nucleus of Thalamus in somatosensory pathway

Path for pain and temperature information to brain, crossing over in Spinal Cord

Path for touch and internal motion information to brain, crossing over in Brainstem

When damage to one side of spine results in different losses on ipsi vs. contra-lateral sides

Location of Primary Projection Area (S1) for somatosensory information

Midbrain area that is probably the source of blocking of pain (as in Gate Theory)

Type of inter-neuron in spine that responds to Endorphins

A proprioceptor that detects passive stretch of a muscle, triggering Stretch Reflex

Area of cortex that includes body map, sends movement commands to Stem and Cord

Location of the Primary Motor Cortex

Anterior to the Pre-Central Gyrus, active during preparation to move, receives especially from Visua-Spatial areas

Dorsal to Broca's Area, also active during preparation, especially for rapid moves, receives from Parietal

Fast, crossing paths from Pyramids in cortex, especially for precise control of peripheral moves

Cortico-Spinal Pathway stops at this Midbrain structure on way from Cortex to Medulla and Cord

Central areas that receive from "telephone poles" and send output to Brain/Cord

Set of forebrain structures controlling posture, muscle tone, and smooth movement

Midbrain structure whose dopaminergic axons synapse in Basal Ganglia
