Question

Drag the examples from the left into the boxes that best categorize the principal mechanism they represent. Recruitment When a candle flame is viewed at a distance, it only activates a few photoreceptors, but when you move closer, many more photoreceptors respond In the retina of the eye, when light strikes photoreceptors in one particular area, it increases action potential frequency in neurons traveling to the brain from that area, while simultaneously activating interneurons that reduce action potential frequency in neurons from adjacent areas Labeled lines During a delicate procedure to remove a tumor from the area of the lateral geniculate nucleus of the brain, contact of a surgical instrument with a particular area causes the patient (who is kept awake during surgery) to perceive flashes of light. Lateral inhibition Reset

Explanation / Answer

When a candle flame is viewed at distance, only activates few photoreceptors , but when you move closer , many more photoreceptors respond- recruitment

In the retina of th eye, when the light strikes on the photoreceptors of one area, it increases the action potential frequency in neurons travelling to brainfrom that area, while simultaneously activating interneurons that reduce actionpotential frequency in neurons from adjacent areas.- Lateral inhibition.

During a delicate procedure to remove a tumor from the area of th elateral geniculate nucleus of the brain , contact of a surgical instrument with a particular area causes the patient to percieve light - Labeled lines .
