41 As a team, answer this prompt on your whiteboard. Use the following terms to describe in detail how you visually perceive an object that you can see right now. Use the terms in order to correctly describe the sequence of events involved in your example of visual perception. Thalamus Retina Pupil Transduction Action potential Feature detector
42 First let s check the order. 1. Pupil 2. Retina 3. Transduction 4. Action Potential 5. Thalamus 6. Feature detector
43 Answer Point 1: Pupil: Students should describe how light reflects off the object, and some of the light passes through the pupil into the eye. Point 2: Retina: Students should explain that the light that passes through the pupil is eventually reflected on the pupil, activating neurons in the retina. Students may use the terms rods and/or cones to describe these neurons, but they do not have to use these specific terms to earn this point. Point 3: Transduction: Students should explain that light waves that were reflected off the object are changed into neural impulses (transduction) at the point of the retina, where neurons fire in response to light waves. Again, students may use the terms rods and/or cones to describe these neurons, but they do not have to use these specific terms to earn this point.
44 Answer Point 4: Action potential: Students should explain that action potentials are released when neurons fire, sending an electrical charge through the neuron. Students can go on to explain this process in more detail (describing the role of neural structures such as dendrites and the axon.) but they do not need to explain those details to earn the point. Point 5: Thalamus: Students should describe the role of the thalamus in the process, specifically that the neural message from the retina first passes through the thalamus, and that the thalamus routes the impulse elsewhere in the brain. Point 6: Feature detector: Students should discuss the role of feature detectors in their visual perception. The thalamus routed the neural impulse to the feature detectors, and these groups of neurons organize the neural firings into a conscious visual perception of the object. Students can identify the specific location of the feature detectors (visual cortex in the occipital lobe), but they do not need to provide this detail to earn the point.
