1. Look at a line that separates a dark color from a light color. Describing this experience.
2. Which part of your retina is responsible for processing the edge ultimately?
a. ganglion cells
b. bipolar cells
c. rods
d. amacrine cells
3. What type of stimulus do ganglion cells prefer?
a. bright centers with dark surrounds
b. dark centers with bright surrounds
c. horizontal bars
d. vertical bars
4. Rod ganglia combine the visual fields of multiple rods.
a. True
b. False
5. How did your ganglion cell code for the stimulus you looked at?
a. With longer or shorter action potentials
b. With bigger or smaller action potentials
c. With taller or shorter action potentials
d. With more or less action potentials
6. How did your retina process the edge?
a. concentric on/off cells
b. the lateral connection between rods and cones
c. lateral inhibition
d. all response choices are correct
7. How did the sideways connections between receptors accentuate edges?
