Question 1

Correct Answer:

Verified

Examples will vary.However,an initial visual image is formed in the occipital lobe.Feature detection extracts meaningful features (occipital,temporal,and parietal lobes).Statistical patterns in the temporal lobe become active through conjunctive neurons which link back to the image and feature representations to form a multilevel representation of a scene.
