From the visual cortex, what are the two streams that process visual info? What are these streams concerned with & where are they located? correct answers 1. Dorsal stream: "where", spatial visual cues → concerned w/ action to know where object is → posterior parietal area 2. Ventral stream: "what", pattern discrimination & recognition → concerned w/ recognizing objects in temporal cortex Define proprioception. Define kinesthesia. correct answers Proprioception: sense of limb posit...
