Jack is 73 years old. He has great difficulty getting out of his chair. When he walks, it takes him a very long time to get his legs moving, but when he does start moving, he begins to go very quickly, almost as if he is starting to run. In addition, while he walks, his arms often hang motionless by his sides. When he is seated, he will stay motionless for long periods with a blank, emotionless expression. Jack is displaying classic symptoms of:

The process that converts light energy into mechanical energy, which results in increased and decreased action potentials (APs) of vision receptors, is called _______ . Light energy enters the eye first through the _______ , then passes through the _______ and _______ before reaching the _______ , which functions to direct light to the appropriate region of the _______ (the back of the eye). The center of the _______ (the blank above this one) is called the _______ , and it is composed of mostly _______ . List two functions of this region: 1) _______ vision and 2) _______ vision. Any region outside of the center of the retina is called the _______ , which is composed of mostly _______ . The type of sensory receptors for vision are called _______ and they are actually composed of _______ & _______ . The light that hits the back of the eye strikes these (previous three blanks), then these sensory receptors for vision send APs to _______ cells in the eye, which send APs to _______ cells and they send info (APs) to _______ cells which synapse onto _______ cells (acronym –> _______ ). These (last blank) _______ then send information (APs) to the brain with the use of white matter axons!
Compared with right-handers, left-handers have:

The white matter axons of _______ (^ blank above) converge near the back of the eye to form the optic _______ (AKA the blind spot) at which point the white matter axons of these cells leave the eye and they are now called the optic _______ . This (previous blank) travels from the back of the eyes and enters the brain at the optic _______ , at which point some of the information crosses hemispheres (e.g., Left eye visual field is now in right hemisphere), this info is called _______ retina info whereas info that is in the right eye and travels to the right hemisphere of the brain is called _______ retina. This bunch of white matter axons are now called the optic _______ because this visual pathway info is now in the brain! This (the last blank) travels to the _______ (3 words or 3 letter acronym) which is in the _______ (the “sensory relay station”), then ganglion cells from here synapse eventually at the _______ also known as _______ which is also called the _______ cortex because this region is “striped” and holds segregated visual info (so does the region of the thalamus). This is the route of information from the environment, into and through the eye, and into the brain. This route of information is called the _______ pathway, whereas the pathway that impacts hormone release is called the _______ pathway. Which leaves the _______ pathway, which does not terminate in the occipital lobe, but it terminates in the _______ and _______ lobes. You just reviewed all three visual information routes into the brain! Great job, please expect this info to be on the exam in this format, a similar format, or a visual format.
