A 56-year-old female was diagnosed with a tumor near the base of the skull, impinging on her optic tract. Which of the following statements about the central visual pathway is correct?

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. The fibers from each temporal hemiretina decussate in the optic chiasm, so that the fibers in the optic tracts are those from the temporal half of one retina and the nasal half of the other
  2. In the geniculate body, the fibers from the nasal half of one retina and the temporal half of the other synapse on the cells whose axons form the geniculocalcarine tract.
  3. Layers 2 and 3 of the visual cortex contain clusters of cells called globs that contain a high concentration of cytochrome oxidase.
  4. Complex cells have a preferred orientation of a linear stimulus and, compared to simple cells, are more dependent on the location of the stimulus within the visual field.

The amount of change in q is directly proportional to the migration (m); The magnitude of change is also affected by the differences in allelic frequencies of the two populations (qI - qII); What is amount of change when 200 migratory individuals are merge in recipient population size of 1800. Allele frequency of q1 of source and recipient population is .80 and .20 respectively.
