Question

The neural impulses transmitted by the optic nerve are analysed and the image formed on the retina is recognised based on earlier _______ and _______.

• A. signals, impulses
• B. experience, memory
• C. signals, stimulus
• D. experience, impulses

Answer 1

The correct option is B experience, memory

The stimulus picked up by the sensory receptors are relayed to the brain and generally stored as memory. Any stimulus picked up by the sensory receptors will be recognised based on earlier experience and memory.
Signals and stimuli are inputs which cause response or reaction.
Impulses are the signals that travel along the neuron. They are the means by which information is transmitted throughout the nervous system.
