Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A labeled line is a direct pathway connecting a receptor to a specific cortical neuron, allowing for precise information processing and perception. It is not a translation of complex information or a reduction in sensitivity, but rather a specific pathway for transmitting sensory information. It also involves stimulation that produces action potentials, but this is not the defining characteristic of a labeled line. Sensitivity adaptation is a separate process and not directly related to labeled lines.
