The visual pathway described in the last of the three figures above is called the _______ pathway, which is one of three visual pathways. The process that converts light into action potentials in the brain is called _______ . There are three names (synonyms) for the same end-location of visual APs traveling along ganglion cells from the eye to the back of the brain, described in the visual pathway by the three figures above. The three names of end-locations of this visual pathway are: _______ , _______ , and _______ . The other two visual pathways have different ‘end-locations’ than the visual pathway depicted above (in the three figures). All three visual pathways have general and specific functions that contribute to visual processing. The visual pathway that is involved in the regulation of circadian rhythms (e.g., eat, sleep, and poop schedules) is called the _______ pathway. The third and final visual pathway is called the _______ pathway. The following 4 ‘blanks’ are for “extra credit”: Visual info (APs) in this pathway start at the eyes and lead to the _______ in the midbrain, then the _______ in the thalamus and end not in the occipital lobe but the _______ and _______ lobes.
