Refer to the figure.
In the normal amphibian, the topographical projection from the eye to the tectum is mapped onto the tectum in such a way that the projection of the visual field is rotated 90° (A). If the optic nerve is cut, and the eye rotated 180°, the projection of the visual field is mapped onto the tectum as shown in (B). What does this result suggest about how the optic nerve regenerates its retina-tectum connections? What would this mean for the amphibian's behavior after the optic nerve regenerates?
