Multiple Choice
Which statement accurately describes the merits of different receptive field properties?
A) Having small receptive fields allows for more precision, but because more receptors are needed it increases overall energy costs.
B) Having large receptive fields allows for more precision, but because the area of responsiveness is larger, it increases the body's energy costs.
C) Having small receptive fields allows for more precision, smaller body surfaces, and decreased energy costs overall.
D) Having large receptive fields allows for more precision, larger body surfaces, and decreased energy costs overall.
