摘要: A large region of posterior neocortex in a number species mammals has been found to be responsive visual stimuli. In some these more detailed studies have subdivided the into separate systematic maps or representations space, and there are several reasons for thinking that important as functionally distinct subdivisions system. For instance, it appears each map is associated with cortical having unique architectonic character distinctive pattern connections other structures. addition, evidence neurons differ way they respond Finally, lesions different produced distinctively behavior changes.
