Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cerebral achromatopsia, which is a condition involving the loss of color vision, is associated with the ventral stream of the visual association cortex, not the dorsal stream. The dorsal stream is involved in processing the location and motion of objects, hence related to the perception of movement, spatial location, and control of eye movements. Akinetopsia, or the inability to perceive motion, is also a dysfunction related to the dorsal stream.
