Do the axons of retinal ganglion cells form the optic nerve?
Yes, the axons of retinal ganglion cells converge to form the optic nerve, which carries visual information from the retina to the brain for processing.
Which neuron layers of an axon form the optic nerve?
There are three layers of neurons in the retina. The axons of GANGLION CELLS form the optic nerves.
What type of nerve is the optic nerve?
ganglion cells
What nerve does the retina form?
optic nerve
What are the special nerve cells that make up the back wall of the eyeball?
optic nerve cells.
What nerve carries the action potentials from the ganglion cells to the thalamus of the brain?
The optic nerves carry the impulses from the eyes to the visual area of the thalamus.
The optic nerve is composed of axons of?
The optic nerve is composed of axons of retinal ganglion cells. These ganglion cells transmit visual information from the retina to the brain for processing.
What is the junction of the retina and optic nerve?
The junction of the retina and optic nerve is called the optic disc or optic nerve head. This is where the optic nerve exits the eye and carries visual information from the retina to the brain. The optic disc is also known as the blind spot because it lacks photoreceptor cells and cannot detect light.
Which term describes the region in the eye where the nerve endings of the retina gather to form the optic nerve?
The term is "optic disc" or "optic nerve head." This is the point in the eye where the optic nerve exits and carries visual information to the brain.
What term describes the region in the eye where the nerve endings of the retina gather to form the optic nerve?
The term for the region in the eye where the nerve endings of the retina gather to form the optic nerve is the "optic disc" or "optic nerve head." This disc is also known as the blind spot since it lacks photoreceptors, making it insensitive to light.
