Highly convergent neural circuits are found
A)mostly in the fovea.
B)mostly in the periphery of the retina.
C)equally distributed in the fovea and the periphery.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Highly convergent neural circuits are predominantly found in the periphery of the retina, where multiple photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) converge onto a single ganglion cell, allowing for greater sensitivity to light at the expense of acuity. This contrasts with the fovea, where there is a one-to-one relationship between photoreceptors and ganglion cells, maximizing visual acuity.
