Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pupillary reflex is the constriction of the pupil in response to increased light intensity. This is a basic visual response that is present in neonates, indicating that they can sense changes in brightness. Otitis media is a condition of the ear that does not relate to visual responses. Stereopsis response is the ability to perceive depth through binocular vision, which is not fully developed in neonates. Visual looming response is the perception of an object approaching, which is not the same as responding to changes in light intensity.
