A single cortical neuron that receives a score of 4 on the ocular dominance scale (which ranges from 1-7) receives information from: (Select all that apply.)
A) one eye only.
B) the temporal parts of both eyes.
C) the temporal part of one eye and the nasal part of the other eye.
D) LGN neurons in either the ipsilateral or contralateral layer only.
E) LGN neurons in both the ipsilateral and contralateral layers.

are true. Cells that respond equally well to stimuli from either eye are given a value of 4. They receive input from the same part of the visual field, as detected by the temporal part of one eye and the nasal part of the other. Ipsilateral RGCs project to LGNs in the ipsilateral layer, while contralateral RGCs project to LGNs in the contralateral layer.
