Question

Indicate a brain region consistent with each of the following descriptions. You can draw a line with a number for each. 1. Has motion-selective cells (other than area MT) 2. Sensitive to the motion of whole objects 3. Specialized for visually-guided reaching 4. Specialized for visually-guided grasping 5. In parietal cortex, involved in planning eye movements 6. Involved in the control of attention, damage to which is associated with unilateral neglect 7. Specialized for the perception of biological motion 8. In frontal cortex, involved in both attention and the control of eye movements, exhibits saccadic remapping

Explanation / Answer

Functions associated with regions in the brain:

1. Has motion-selective cells- Visual area V5

2. Senstitive to motion of whole object- Cortcal area MT

3. Specialized for visually-guided reaching- The dorsal stream of visual information processing connecting V1 to the parietal cortex is thought to provide a fast control of visually guided reaching.

4. Specialized for visually guided grasping- Occipitoparietal region
