Question 1

People with prosopagnosia might also demonstrate the phenomenon of blindsight.​

Accepted Answer

Prosopagnosia and blindsight are distinct conditions; prosopagnosia affects facial recognition, while blindsight involves responding to visual stimuli without conscious perception, typically due to damage in different brain areas.
