    Frontal
    Nasal
    Temporal
    Rostral


3. What is the correct order of the primary visual pathway in the brain?
    Retina, Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (LGN), Striate Cortex (V1)

    Scotoma


5. What characterizes the visual impairment known as akinetopsia?
    Impaired color perception due to cortical damage
    Impairment of visually guided reaching, despite normal object recognition abilities
    Impaired ability of object recognition due to inability to link visual information to semantic knowledge
    Impaired motion perception due to cortical damage


6. Which of the following is a subtype of visual agnosia that is essentially a failure to organize a coherent perception of an object because of a breakdown of object constancy?

    Cytochrome Oxidase
    Dopamine Esterase
    Seratonergic Acid


9. Which of the following is a category specific visual deficit exemplified by the patient being unable to recognize faces?
